30 mile mpg challenge

You win. Those are some impressive numbers.

 

Did it work for you? Do you have a link to where you bought from

 

I tried getting 25+ mpgs on the way home tonight.
I drove 55-57mph in 6th gear (never got past 2k rpm, and I shifted at 2.2k rpm up to 6th), but the speed limit was 75mph. I Got a lot of high beams and honks, but I just ignored them. The best I could get was 22mpg

My current MPG meter was maxed out the entire time, and I used cruise control the entire time.

It took me 31 minutes to travel 20 miles( 99% highway with very little traffic)

And guess what? now my check engine light is on.... I am never doing this again. I don't know what you guys are doing to get high mileage, but Seems like I endured a lot of BS just to get normal highway miles.

 

Rookies

 

I'm getting between 18-20mpg but my Taco only has 2,200 miles on it. I drove a Prius for seven years before my Taco and got between 45-50mpg so I'm averaging out my MPG for the next seven years at 30mpg!!!!

 

I say stuff like that to my wife. Lets take your car, it will give us better gas milage average for the 2 vehicles. Or, I got crap milage in the truck the other day, we need to average that off.

 

Are all you guys getting mileage this high completely stock? I can only manage 11-12 on highway and 16-17 on interstate

 

Me too. Check the CPS thread. There could be a possible solution to this.

 

Ill drive my gfs Nissan Juke in eco mode when we go on trips, and its great! We'll get half way from Galveston to DFW and the DTE will go from 400 to 488, and THEN itll start going down.

 

Do you have a link? I'm not sure which thread you're talking about. I have the cps recall

 

I will post a picture when I next leave Flagstaff....

 

can you link the cps thread?

 

My tank average is typically around 20-21. After coming home from a bike ride at Curt Gowdy State Park the other evening I finally got to see 30. Basically all downhill with a strong wind pushing to boot but it still made my day.

 

My best... shit

 

My average at 70mph is 21-22mpg

 

Rounds up the 30mpg

 

Ravencrest?

 

MacGregor, right at the northern entrance to RMNP

 

Nice. I have been there. I was a Ravencrest student in 2001. Estes is a beautiful place.

 

Got it!
