Hello,
My name is Don. I'm from near Buffalo, NY. I saw this site as a result of viewing a picture by Tigerhonaker on the Green Hybrid site. I'm interested in learning more about emissions, and fuel saving techniques.:D

tbaleno 03-09-2006, 01:53 PM Welcome Don. How are you doing now for FE? How much of an improvement do you want and how much effort do you want to put in?
My goal (that I just made up ;) ) is that I want every member of this site to improve 10% over what they get now. For some it should be easy. For others who are already doing very well it might be more difficult.
krousdb 03-09-2006, 04:07 PM Ouch! 10% will really be putting the thumbscrews to me.:eek: It might take extrordinary means to get that. But it might be fun.:D

10% in the same vehicle? Or are we allowed to upgrade the hardware? (lol)
tbaleno 03-09-2006, 05:28 PM Same vehicle. And yes Dan, I was thinking of you when I put the last sentence in.
krousdb 03-09-2006, 06:53 PM OK, so 10% starting from when? My first tank in the Del Sol was 50.33 MPG on 1/21/06. My latest tank looks like it will come in at 55MPG. Looks like I am just about there. Today's drive home was Sweeeeet! 64F, 13 MPH tailwind, 60MPG. Not bad for +200ft elevation change.
W0000000t! Can't wait for summer.:D
tbaleno 03-09-2006, 07:19 PM Lets say 60mpg+10% ;)
heh. That will teach you to show up all the hybrids.

Hi Don, From New York.
Welcome to CleanMPG the Forum for "Anyone and Everyone" that wants Increased FE. :D
So, you did the Link from over at GH and it led you here. Gee, I never thought about that when I did the Thread and Link to the Pictures. :rolleyes:
Nice to see you over here and certainly hope that you will visit us here Frequently. :)
Regards;
Terry

Tbaleno,
Overall, I'm getting 41 mpg. :confused: It's cold here, I have a 6.5 mi. commute, and we get snow. However, I've gotten up to 62.2 mpg :) with the car warmed up, mix of 4 lane, and main roads going 50 mph in 34 degree F. weather. I hope to improve my mileage. My car is "Blue Baby" in the GH database. Thanks for the welcome from you and all the other members. I'm sure that I will enjoy this site like a do the GH site.
Regards,
Don

That's no problem here. I'll just wait until the weather warms up (which is happening right now) and BOOM instant FE increase. :D
tbaleno 03-10-2006, 10:47 AM Ahh, but wait until we make it some sort of rolling average ;)
