I submit that as a challenge to 2000neon, PaleMelanesian, basjoos, Stacygifford, mloveland78, and Ecky. You want my spot? come and get it! Also i really hope you do take my spot! Good luck, i know you guys can do it!
be careful what you ask for.

I just finished a record tank. Topped off tank down to sputtering dry, maximum distance and mpg. Full p&g eoc the whole time. Summer, so no school or other troublesome hindrances.

946 miles
12.982 gallons (max for a Fit. Now you know)
72.8 mpg

That's a record by 144 miles and almost 5 mpg.

I'm up to #3 in the top 10 mpg, up from 18th.
I'm up to #1 in % epa, up from 5th.
I'm up to #4 in Team Honda, from 13th.

And #1 in Wagons! Also the highest ranking car team!

I think my next fill (soon) will bring up my 90 day, but I can't figure out how it's calculated.

Bringing up the rear!

I was not even aware of the team honda aggregate and individual data until just now. I see that I am in last place and dragging the rest of the team down. That's gonna change!

I'm also looking to step up my mileage game! just put up a new personal best, 46.24mpg's I was really hoping for 50.

team honda is so tuff, I don't think I'lll move up or down in the standings with this new best tank!

I'll coast farther on the next tank, and be more mindful of my speed on the highway. better double check my tire pressure as well.

Gasoline: nice work!

I may be able to join the team this winter with the '07 Civic 5-speed "winter beater".

It's good for ~50 mpg US in town with a little effort... but most of my driving will be on the highway, and mid-high-40's are more likely the way I typically drive (DWL, secondary roads). And I probably won't run more than a tank or 2 of gas through it before I sell it.
