Default Re: 75.5 MPG in a FEH

CONGRATS, GPSMan! Awesome and definitely adds fuel to my desire to increase my MPGs further. This tank hasn't been so great. Three relatives in the hospital (Mom, brother-in-law, and husband's uncle) for different reasons, and multiple speedy trips to get things for them or look in on them, is killing my normally relaxed driving. (But in the FEH, "killing" my mileage still just means 33mpg.

Did you remove your roof bars by yourself or did someone else (dealer? service station?) do that? Since I don't think I'll ever use them I am tempted to take them off, too. Easier to clean the roof that way, anyway.

Even our nighttime temperatures are in the 80s now so I can't fret about what I can change re: optimal environmental temps for battery, but everything else is applicable.
