Broke the 40MPG Barrier!!!
 
I filled up yesterday and I hit 40.88 so I will round that up and call it 41!!!

Only thing I did was turn off the A/C because its been so cool here this week. That jumped me from 34mpg to 41!

No EOC and I drove the speed limit on the highway.

I'm going home this afternoon to start some aero mods. This is exciting!

Nice job! Keep up the good work, :thumbup:

Good on you!

I'm right behind you. My last best was 38.6. When I started here I didn't think I would get much past 30. Now I'm thinking 50.

Good luck. See you at 50.

Very nice. Keep it up!

Awesome. Is an 18% jump in FE from no A/C common? I don't use my A/C, so I don't have any before and after numbers to go off of for my vehicle.

My ultimate goal is 65MPG. My wife thinks I'm crazy, but when I reminded her yesterday that her dad averaged 28MPG when he brought the car out to us from chicago...I think she may be thinking its possible.
