Hey Bryan,

I think it says on the mileage database page you need to be above the EPA estimates over at least 3,000 miles. Just keep up the good work!

I might give you a run for your money, though... I've gone 323 miles so far on my first tank, and my display is sitting at 36.1 MPG, with 115 MTE. We'll see when I actually fill it up.

Regards,
Fred
