Default mpg update

just calculated my mileage for the first time in over 6 months.

14.1 mpg!!!! i was SO happy. and the only thing ive been doin is being more conscious of my driving habits. so i gained 1.6 mpg just by easing up the right foot.

Glad to hear it. I get 13 mpg average. If only i could keep my right foot from being so heavy! Would save on tire usage as well.

i checked mine this afternoon after about 2+ weeks of nothing but city driving, mostly 35-45 mph, stop, go, stop, go, AC on in the afternoons. 349 mi on the tank, down to dead empty red line, filled up with 24.0 gal of $2.99 gas. 349/24 = 14.5 i'm happy with that. an easy foot makes a big difference.
