Smile 42 mpg!

I think reporting VTECs seems gimmicky so i'm going to stop.

Commute 1: More traffic, traffic was faster and more random than usual and prevented me from using DWL for almost the entire expressway.

Over the weekend i 'cleaned' the EGR valve and battery terminals, which required me to perform the idle learn procedure and burn 0.13 gallons of gas. I subtracted the .13 gallons from the fillup so it would be more accurate as to my DRIVING average.
Fillup right before commute 2: 364.8 Miles, 10.539 Gallons. 34.6 MPG

Commute 2: Much less traffic than usual, was slower than usual, and it often permitted me to go 60 mph and use DWL and coasting in neutral extensively. So i got a new record for the best trip in the V6! 42 MPG! Thats 56% over the HIGHWAY EPA! I never got above 2,800 RPM for this trip.

I'm going to go post this on Driveaccord.net. Let's see how many freak out.
