Not sure if the 89 octane fuel had anything to do with higher mpg's or if my driving changed slightly...? I found a new favorite gas station, it is an Ag supply store selling 100% gasoline. No more nasty ethanol in my fuel! |

Filled up with 89 octane rather than 87 to see if my engine runs smoother. I don't expect anything really, but it doesn't cost much to try. |

Starting to experiment with engine off coasting, there are a couple miles in my commute where I can take advantage of this technique.
I wish this car had another 20 HP, but it is a good little escape pod so it is hard to complain.  |

Removed mud flaps at the end of this tank, hopefully these low 40 mpg's should come a little more easily now. |

This should be my last tank on winter tires, so it should be easier for me to crack 40 mpg very soon with a slightly lower rolling resistance! |
