HYPOTHESIS : VERY Goldilox traffic (not too pushy). Again, very compariable data to previous record. The last stretch on the 105 had traffic density slow enough to allow me to maintain my slower average speed. The irony is that when the traffic forces people to slow down but not go below 30 MPH, I gain MPG.
5th gear in 30-35 mph la traffic has to be better than 65 in 5th, slowing to 35 a few times ,and back up to 65 the rest of the way home. i do great going to my mom's in traffic.
