id like to say im smart in regards to aero but ill defer to you on that as i trust your knowledge more than mine...as far as my vehicle goes ive driven the same 2 mile stretch on my way to the mall probably 10 times with my scanguage.

i reset the sg current mpg as i passed an exit sign 2 miles from my mall exit going 57 and then pulsed to 65 and on another trip up to 70...ive done it at least 4 times. a 2 mile stretch is a small sample size but i got more than 1 mpg on all 4 passes in neutral coast and i coasted further from 70 than from 65...it seemed to make sense for me to start from 70 than 65.

the whole reason i tried it was to prepare for my 400 mile trip home next week.
