So close!!!

Crap.
My goal was over 30mpg, and I got 29.97 at fillup this morning.
I'm pretty sure that I can attribute missing my target to the fact that twice I sat in traffic (stop and go, couldn't shut down the car), for a total of close to an hour and a half.
Still, in addition to better mileage, my standard fillup is every 1.5-2 weeks, and this one I pushed to 3 weeks, filling up at 1/4 tank as usual. As my last 2 tanks were pretty consistent, I'm ready to call that a baseline (I know, 2 data points is not enough, but I'm chomping at the bit).

Let the aero modding begin!
