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!!!!

Nice, You're likely to do better once the engine is broken in. Keep air pressures up if you can as well.

Unfortunately I just checked my mileage and got 25 mpg on my last tank doing some short trips and some highway in traffic. This is my normal mpg and I have about 5000 miles on my Sport AT.

A far cry from your mpg.
