Hypermiling conditioning

Well I'm on vacation and about 400 miles from home, testing my H skills... and well... they still suck.LOL

We took my wife's 100% stock Toyota Corolla to see if I can better my mileage(Coeur d' Alene ID to Port Townsend WA. Last time on the same route I averaged 39MPG Today my best again was 39.99 mpg (65mph average speed). I even drafted (to a point not to upset the cargo van's driver in front of me) for 200 miles. I thought for sure I would have my first 40mpg with this car. But no. I still need to put some more miles on tomorrow and see where I'm at but it will probably be not good. I had to go over two passes, one that's 4000'. But I'm still happy with the mileage considering I haven't messed with this car. Its a good thing because there's always a chance something could go wrong and leave us stranded.
