Well my girlfriend just called me with the latest results from filling the tank, and according to my math I got just a little under 42 MPG.:D This is my 2nd tank since I changed my driving the last tank was just over 37 MPG.

Congrats. :) What car are you driving?

It helps to put this in your signature or in your profile so people know.

I haven't figured out how to do that yet. 1998 Suzuki esteem rated for 27MPG I think.

Hi Damion, to put the If you haven't already checked out Wayne's article Beating the EPA (http://www.cleanmpg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1510), that's a good place to start. To put your car's info in your signature:

Find out your mileage log's number by going to your vehicle's mileage log. You will see something like viewcar=Your Log's Number. Write this number down/remember it.
Go to your User CP (http://www.cleanmpg.com/forums/usercp.php) and click 'edit signature'.
Paste this in your signature, replacing curly brackets with square brackets, and # signs with the number you recorded.

Nice work you're getting some good numbers already!

I actually had read that article yesterday, and thus have stopped drafting semis. I am still working on coasting in neutral. I think it's called nice-on? When I started I was only hoping to hit 35 MPG. And I have gotten my signature working...thank you.

I love this website you learn so much here and congrats on your first tank being over 35. My first tank when i started hit a wooping 29.9 I hated it, but then again the tank was not full and so far to date my car is getting 49.4 and i will be placing my second tank soon. GO HM 'ers

Peace and Happy HM ing
