I averaged 62.3mpg driving for work yesterday - around 60 miles one way. I used fairly extensive pulse & glide, but also had a couple of very spirited 0-50mph bursts (might have left some long, black marks in a few places). The roads were wet and there was snow on the ground - it was in the 30's F.

That said, it seems like things get exponentially more difficult above 60mpg or so. I think I'll need some more engine tuning, some warmer weather, and some further mods.
