Consumption screen, 100% green!

magruder · 05-04-2009, 06:50 PM

I know others have done this, but I was pretty excited to get all green bars all the way across my comsumption screen. In other words, I managed to go over 30 minutes averaging 100mpg for every 5 minute interval. Obviously I was going down a very long hill. There was one stop sign though, but I managed to get going with again with just the battery.

Regards,
Dave

Sorry, I do have a photo, but not with me now. I was too excited to wait!

Well that's totally understandable. Best I've been able to do was for 4 5-minute intervals at the top.

The drive from Reno to Sacramento can achieve similar results. Easy to see 50+ mile segments with over 100mpg (once over the Sierran crest it's all downhill).

Grats!

Yes, but regen is preferable to skidding off the road into the American River Canyon.

True story!

Another fun milestone is the fastest speed driven without using any fuel (warp stealth). If you have a Scangauge, you can verify that the fuel is cutoff (0.0 GPH). My fastest warp stealth speed is 88 mph. I think that someone reported that the ICE will come on at 92 mph but I haven't tried gliding that fast yet.
