Default First 100mpg segment!

Just logged my first >100mpg trip to work! 100.1 on FCD for the 27 mile trip to work. Mornings are getting warmer - over 60 deg F this morning.

Hi Kayakwill:

___Congratulations and it is indeed a great accomplishment. You will be talking about this with your grandchildren someday, I guarantee it!

___The good part is that there are many more to come now that you know it can be done, your technique is honed to a razor’s edge, and your Insight’s setup is pristine. In a month or two from now with many more of those 100 mpg + segments under your belt, you will look back and say that was not as tough as I remember and I wonder if 110, 115, or even if 120 is possible

___Now that the first is in the books, you will never look at FE in whatever you drive in a similar light ever again

___Good Luck and congrats.

Thumbs up Re: First 100mpg segment!

Great job!

Your last tank was over 80 mpg, how high will the next be?

Regards,
