Hey, Darin.
[REDACTED] here, one of your long-standing lurkers.
I've been driving Geo Metros since 1993. 'Tried my darndest to get a Metro to do 60 mpg at 60 mph in real-world driving. Got it to 58.5 but that is the best I can seem to manage. These are my daily drivers, no radical tricks: Just careful driving and minor modifications anyone could reasonably do. Best tanks ever were 68+ mpg, that with a car-full of camping gear, including a bike! - in warm weather and on flat roads... Such is not to be found on my home turf, which is north-central PA.
Got many of the good ideas I've used from ecomodder, so for that, I thank you and the good folks who take the time to do the write-ups.
Thanks for everything you do, and have done, for so many years!
Cheers!
