Best tank yet!
Yay! 65mpg! Just thought I would toss it out there. Best tank so far, and I deal with 1-2 hours of traffic on uphill terrain 2 days a week haha.

Just did my best trip average 23.66mpg on a 65 miles drive in the cold at -17°C, windy night and hilly roads.
The truck is pretty stock except for that front grille block! Can't wait till summer so I can start ecomodding the Vue.
Lots of maintenances planned for spring and lots of ecommodds planned for summer.
Ecomodding is so fun and its greatest feature is that its cheap. Ecomodding FTW,

Nice job! I think I might be having my worst tank ever (something around 28 MPG, might be higher, but not from the looks so far ). Though, this isn't really my fault, I had to idle a lot at the beginning of the tank because battery was getting old / low. Fortunately I got a new battery, with more storage than the old one!

It has 198k miles and only had the tranny serviced once, brakes hardly work (I think the master cylinder is leaking, however the brake pads are <25%), the doors don't lock, it needs a major alignment, it has no insurance and the tags are in non-op, so Nah, not right now. I'll be taking it to a friends shop probably Wednesday or week after this coming week Tuesday to do all the work, then I'll put insurance back on it, take it out of non-op and have fun. It just irritates the hell out of me because the insight is 30$ a month to insure and the Mustang is more than double that.

Not bad. I got to drive a gen 1 insight and managed 55 mph over 300 miles. It was a manual and I was just driving it with no regards to economy.
Oh, sounds like the tang is ready for the kidney foundation as a donation.
