coroplast smooth wheel covers, lawn trim air dam, and riveted aluminum grill block (plus coroplast upper grill block). Just over 47mpg |
Congrats.
Is that over a full tank? What type of driving is that? You should keep a fuel log here. |
Yeah, I keep telling myself I need to post my fuel log. I just sorta write my trip od miles on my gas receipts each time. And, yeah, that's over a full tank - actually two consecutive full tanks, the second one was about .5mpg higher, and most of it was while I had one tire with a slow leak in it. I haven't really seen much improvement since the tire was replaced, though.
I'm doing pretty aggressive hypermiling. I never use A/C. I hardly ever use my brakes except when I have to come to a complete stop, and then it's only lightly. I never leave my engine idling when i'm stopped unless I anticipate I'll start moving within the next 60seconds. That said, I don't completely avoid drive through's, but I don't idle while sitting in line either. I really want to do a PS delete, but the ps pump shares a belt with the water pump :( |
Congrats on the good mileage. You should check out weatherspotters PS delete thread. He has also been contemplating it and he has only one belt that is shared with everything. IMO and what I recommended to him was to just get an idler pulley to replace the PS pump.
