I've had fun comparing my "nut behind the wheel" to others. Occasionally I have to rent a car for one-way travel. These days most rentals have helpful onboard trip/eco displays. I note the history and see how far I can improve the stats before I return the car. I'm amazed by the difference.
Best trip yet was a 500 mile drive in a "Skyactive" Mazda 3. The "miles to empty" climbed for half the trip. (250 at pickup, 260 at halfway point) I joked that at this rate we would have to stop and let some gas out.
