For me, it wouldn't be so impressive unless I put

EPA Combined: 16
Real Life MPG: 22.56

Don't worry.. I've got an enormous back window

There are some stickers on eBay that are various MPG classes. I'm going to buy a couple of them and as I increase my MPGs, I'll stick them on.



Here's an example:

I used to have a "48 MPG" sticker on my car, but I ended up removing because I felt kind of vain about it. However, now that I've gotten serious about hypermiling, I'm going to post my mileage again.

I'll probably just carry the windshield marker in the car and re-do it after each fll up; if nothing else this will motivate me to keep pushing to higher MPGs.

Once I get my tonneau cover finished and block up the gap between the bed/cab, I should be able to hit 33mpg easily..

I saw one of those Cafe Press stickers on a car today.

Too bad they only go up to 100 mpg though.

Maybe I could put three of them on my cycle?

Last charge up was 321 MPG equivelent.
