    I just got her home yesterday, After reading on here how to eek out the best mileage, I decided to see what I could do going to work and back.
    I reset my trip meter and drove the 11 mile track that has 35,45,and 55 MPH zones and a few hills. I got 57.8 going to work, and then reset it for the trip home and got 68.7!!! I just made sure I dropped the power so the engine would stop at all down hill spots . Only 140 miles so far.
