40.12MPG with the Fit Sport Auto

I drove my Fit off the lot on Friday as it took nearly two weeks to get (I Had to have Blue). The first tank with empty weekend nothing miles got 31 MPG. I filled it up this morning at my normal station (Sheetz) and then filled it up at the same station today (same pump). I calculated 40.12 MPG. That is on my nearly 80 mile (one way) commute with about 72 of those miles (again one way) being interstate. I am very happy, as that was with 70 mph driving with the AC on this afternoon (not this morning, as the garage kept the car cool overnight and it was comfy on the way to work). I did nothing crazy, and still got the 40.12MPG. I am going to try some of the other techniques on the next few and see what I can get.

Overall... I am very happy. It only cost me $13 to got to work and back, down from $22 with my old "beater" Pontiac. I love it!!!!

Mike
