Weird thing last night - was doing my usual Ocean Drive loop and then a little more - 52.7mpg 21 miles - was lugging it at 18mph in 5th without touching the gas and was getting 90MPG.
Another thing that really bugs me and I may need to hack the code to fix this is if I turn on the AC going down hill with my foot off the gas it adds fuel and accelerates when it already is going in gear.
Monitoring the LOD reading on the ScanGauge really shows how much lugging I am doing - check it out sometime. It is supposed to be the Percentage of output of the engine at any RPM and it is easy to push it to 75-90% output at low RPM - may be a good test for finding the idea RPM/Load efficiency of the motor.
