when you drive a 17 epa vehicle like me...and exclusively city driving...you get mpg envy on the ecomodder site. im getting 33 percent above epa on my 4runner but when you see guys getting 40 plus mpgs you cant help but be jealous. if you cant beat em at least outlast em...

fuel conservation is my only salvation. for the past 5 months ive been trying to stretch a tank of gas through 30 days...failed since june...eight times. today i filled my tank exactly one month to the day i last filled it on oct 10. yeah...i got 19+ mpg...but i paid $40 for energy in my car this month. walked in the cold when i could have driven...coasted with headlights on my bumper...even pushed my car out of the driveway every morning for the past week...it was worth it.

before i found ecomodder i filled my tank about three times a month...$200 and 80 gallons a month. thanks to svo...mpg metro...and especially trikkoncept i hit my goal
