60 MPG!

[handy]

I had some kind of glitch as I was driving slowly and was resetting the mpg. By the time I took this picture it went from 60 to 52.9. I had just filled up at Costco so maybe I got a red bull shot of concentrated 93 octane...lol.

I am at 1800 miles and my next leg of the trip was between 24-28 after it normalized which was a mix of 80% highway and 20% city. Before today I had never gotten above 24mpg.

In my opinion very short-term readings are of little value. Akin to coasting down a steep grade of a few hundred feet or more...

Back in the day when i had a Prius (non plugin) I always tried to make it all the way home from the gas station on EV mode only so I could enjoy that sweet 99.9 MPG tank average.

Anyhoo, plenty of chat in this thread about some secret fuel economy hacks that BIG OIL doesn't want you to know about - I got 76.6 MPG with this weird trick.

Hey, basic internal combustion physics. The fuel/air ratio, as I recall, must be in the 14.5-15 arena. No magic carburetor (or injection system) exists, or could exist.

That is the avg MPG while sitting in the garage overnight.
