Hypermiling your fuel economy — The greenest extreme sport for cars {Autoblog Green}

Nov 18th 2006 10:27PM Hi Ray:

___Thanks for the write-up!

___And to the rest, I drive a non-modified every day 05 Honda Accord PZEV w/ Auto.

Best FE over a tank: 1095.2 miles @ 58.163 mpg's.
Best range on a tank: 1,105 miles @ 57.269 mpg's.

Lifetime MPG's (year round FE) through Chicago's daily nightmare = 48.5 mpg's over 66,000 miles.

___I hope that settles some of this? Improve your techniques and the FE will come along for the ride.

___Last month, a group of 6 of us nailed down a 2,254.4 mile tank in a Honda Insight at > 164.x mpg's. That should hold the wolves at bay for a few years anyway! And enough of the fish stories ;-)

___I hope some of you can learn from the following:
