most people naturally assume that they get EPA.

I drove my last car, a Dodge Spirit
hard and ignorantly believed it really didn't matter too much, as far as FE is concerneed.
I thought "Sure I burn more fuel but get there faster so it's a tradeoff"
I didn't know what the EPA Est even was for the car.
I normally filled 16 gallons 3x a week @ around 16-17MPG.
Cruise control set at the speed limits were boring, and it only achieved about 20MPG.
In my case I bought my HCH when I had been in the new car market for over a year.
I think I made an excellent decision. The instrumentation and the potential built into my car makes it fun to develop the skill. A new mindset so to speak.
Honestly,
If I was not willing to change my driving habbits, if I was still the agressive, sometimes dangerous driver of old, I'd likely be complaining.
