This just in...

on the way home I filled the tank
12.4 gallons - 319.2 miles @ $2.78 / gal
25.7 MPG ( up from 22 pre-ECO tank)

so with the small changed made:
- easy accel
- Opprotunity parking
- Pulse and Glide (in neutral)

I have just saved myself $5.46

fill up every 2 weeks or so - that is about $150 in my pocket.
and i am just getting started....

Next up is playing with EOC and tire pressure. I would LOVE to hit 30.

Gotta love this forum
