Great article! If they can manage 60mpg with the 2009 2.4 liter XRS, then surely I should be able to do the same with my 2006 1.8 liter XRS.

I have a scan gauge. So for hypermiling purposes, I should be monitoring TPS(?) and Load? What is TPS?

The article says to limit TPS to no more than 33 and Load to 94%. On the highway they recommend TPS of 29 and Load of 70-85%.

Granted, I have a different engine than the article, but I'll give this a try.
