Wow, if you're pulling 30mpg with a V6 doing that, that's basically what I do with my Camry (I p&g with engine on, shifting into neutral), I can't wait to see what my fuel millage average is when I finish this tank off, the sad thing is is that I don't think it's going to be gone before spring break which means I am going to have to fill it before it's fully empty so the trip odometer won't read a nice pretty 450-500 miles on a single tank...god that would be lovely.

Righ now I'm at 130 miles to this tank and haven't even touched the 3/4 tank line
