Howdy
Hey all, just signed up. Got a 2007 Honda Fit Sport Automatic. I've been over at fitfreak.net for a little bit, and using my ScanGauge II to do some amateur hypermiling. So far, my record is 38.3 MPG for a tank. 
Looking forward to reaching 40 with the tips here.
Have a Nice Day! |

Re: Howdy
Welcome!
Have you read the intro article "Beating the EPA" available on the right side of the home page?
BTW- 40MPG in a Fit is Very possible.

No, it describes the car when I bought it.  |

Re: Howdy
Good price, then?
Glad to see you over on this side. Your car and mine are similar, so 40 should be a distant memory soon.

Absolutely; I second that statement.
Although Fitfreak.net isn't as receptive to see CleanMPGers sometimes. I was first a member at FitFreak.net. Now I rarely go there, besides to see the funny debates in the Fuel Economy forum. Many of those guys simply CANNOT believe the potential of the Fit. I couldn't either... then I started hypermiling.
BTW - I used to average 32-33 MPG in the Fit. |
