They have used 22.5L/45L to travel 1006.62km as reported by the SuperMID in the 5 shifts so far, that is if all 45L can actually be used, so they are around half way. Insanity!

115 mpg! That's unbelievable, literally unbelievable. You guys are the elite special forces of the hypermiler brigade.

Is anybody giggling yet ?

117.6 mpg would be a 2 Litre (per 100 Km) car. Imagine that.

I want a Prius! Who wants to buy a Civic Hybrid with only 8K miles?

I want one of those guys as a chauffeur. I don't weigh much. Honest.

Off hand, I'd say Wayne's remark was either meant to deflect further questions, or was alluding to the PR duties that the group has become beset by, and Dave's aplomb in handling that sort of thing.

I'd be frightened spitless to be on Leno.

Thank you, Dan.

My comment was for Dave's summary post (#23).
Now, I saw the complete results like #24 for the shift 4. It's enough.

Thanks again for the awesome SuperMID! :-)
You're welcome.
Good luck to new record!
