Still looking good Ty'. There are, currently, 8 in the 100% club( not counting electric cars). I think you and I are going to have our work cut out for us this winter.

Congrats on getting over 50mpg with the construction and the lovely weather we've had in the Northeast lately!

School drop off season as well. 30 degrees F. this morning here and a trip to the high school brought my mileage down a bit.

Done any scraping yet, Ty?

No scraping yet, I'm in South Jersey
I've been struggling to keep the average up. I've noticed that with school back in, there is quite a bit more traffic in the morning. The morning commute is what I have been relying on to get my average up.
The cold temps mean about 5% more LOD to achieve the same speed. I'm gonna try another round of mods before winter to try and keep the average above 50 thru the cold months.

Deathtrain should be outlawed from talking about how cold weather is hurting his mpgs!
