i have adopted a "test
i have adopted a "test route" too: the same one that gave me those 80+ mpg runs. 7.3 miles. city, suburban, exurban combo. 2 really good hills, 4 ok hills. 6 traffic lights, 7 stop signs.
i tried for a record today, since it was probably the warmest day so far this year. i was on track for 85 mpg (US) when some doofus turned out in front of me at the bottom of my best hill. lots of braking resulted and made me miss a green light.
(probably pissed me off as much as i piss off other people who occasionally get held up by my slow-*** driving!)
got an 81.x instead. tank average is around 68 so far (indicated).
