Not sure where the conversation is going, but the reason I got into hypermiling was because I realized I was getting barely 22 mpg in my '03 Mazda Protege5 and looked to see what I could do to improve that. I did squeak a couple of 30 mpg tanks after that, but as it turns out, when the EPA updated the ratings, the 2.0L Proteges only got 25 mpg combined, which I find appalling for a car that didn't even have ABS and only weighed 2700 lbs.
