Default Finally reached a trip goal
Finally Broke the 70 mpg barrier on my normal home bound commute.
Actually had more than the normal bumper to bumper traffic today,
which actually helped since I had to deal with slower speeds and allowed
more low speed P&G. Temps today were in upper 70's.

Great job!

Your lifetime average MPG shoud be rising real strong if you can maintain anything close to this for a whole tank.

Regards,

Thanks, all

Anyway I completed the tank at 61.3 mpg calc by hand (61.8 on trip), down slightly from
previous tank but I am not complaining.
