Re: terribly low MPG OUCH
I've been getting 23 mpg in mixed driving lately...up from about 20....this is done by driving like the church lady....slow accelerations from stops and trying to drive 55...I have a scan gauge II and have been seeing 28-30 mpg on the highways driving 55...#'s I've never seen before....I never drove 55 before either...this is more than a coincidence. I also throw it into neutral (i have a 5 speed) when i see a stop sign or red light and glide up to the stop. In neutral gliding the scan gauge reads 70 mpg....it ALL adds up after 12 gallons.....long stop lights (over a minute) i'll shut the engine off too.
driving slow = saving gas the people who blow by me I usually catch at lights.
hope this helps
