DUDE… you are a Master O restraint… ok, gotta try and match that… I'll keep in D and comfort all the way to work and see what I get.

How many miles do you have on the motor so far?

I got 29 mpg on the way to work on Tuesday without passing anyone like I normally do.

Wednesday was 27 mpg w/one pass which was a line of five cars (damn parade leaders).

I have a 30 mile commute. 22 miles on a rural highway and about 8 miles in city/town traffic.

I broke 2500 miles today. The 27mpg ride was so slow, primarily due to traffic congestion. After the traffic cleared up, I kept it to under 70mph and took the twisties on the backroads very conservatively.

29mph, holy crap. What was your speed like? I don't think I would have the patience to pull that off. My 27mpg ride was sloooowwwww.

Speed was around 60-65mpg on rural highway. In town between 20 - 45 mph. I stayed completely out of boost.

Yesterday I only got 25mpg, but was driving more like 80mph.

Very nice. I'm definitely not getting that kind of mileage yet. I might have missed it - how many miles on the motor?

Ok, I drove miss daisy today and only 27.3 (per the computer). I even coasted down the large hills. 6 miles city, 12.5 miles highway.

2400 miles on the motor now.
