Success!

Made my goal of 70 mpg and 700 miles for the tank! Not a big deal in this car, except the tank started out at an abysmal 64.6 mpg at 75 miles due to the constant recals from my dysfunctional IMA battery, so I turned off the IMA battery and drove the rest of the tank without assist or autostart/autostop.
I sat in Orlando traffic at a dead stop cursing for an hour with the AC cranked, and drove a couple of days battling a tropical storm, so there was a lot going against me for the last couple of weeks.

Basically my car is now a pimped out Geo Metro, but it's nice to know I can still hit 70 mpg with my regular commute
