My wife averages 3-5 MPG more than me!

Re: My wife averages 3-5 MPG more than me!
Since it's just me in my household, I'm the only driver. Though, when I do finally get a Mrs., she'll have to pass a few tests before she can drive my FEH.

Re: My wife averages 3-5 MPG more than me!
I drive the hybrid most of the time. When she drives it she doesn't do any techniques to get the most out of it. I'm not referring to pulse and glide or drafting a freight train. She doesn't ease off the gas to go to EV mode or even watch the mpg gauge. So I win hands down.
She drives our other car, which is an Explorer with a V-8. She'd have trouble getting the same mileage as the Camry going downhill in neutral with a tailwind.

We both have long commutes, but hers has longer steeper hills and virtually no city driving so she really can't get the same milage I do. I also bought a ScanGauge for mine so I have another edge over her. We bought both our Escapes the same day just over a year ago.
