It's 34F degrees out and I just got home from work tonight. I had one pip left and decided to stop and fill up before tucking in for the night. I reset the MFD and drove home the four miles and the MFD showed 97.3 mpg. I love that drive home, mostly downhill, few stops and 30 mph speed limit. Of course it will be all uphill from here, but for those four miles every two weeks, I feel so good.
LOL I hear ya! One of these days I'm going to fill up my tank at the top of the hill, overlooking Reno, and coast all the way home for 115miles. :lol:

On 50 you can make it all the way from Echo Summit to Folsom (about 70 miles) with the MDF showing 99.9 MPG.
