This tank was 35.81.

Finally broke that 34 mpg average today.

Pretty good for an automatic and pretty much all city driving. 35 mpg here I come.

100 % city mileage

I just finished three weeks of work commuting. 33 miles per day. for 15 days. My average mileage was 43 at each fill up. I used all the hypermilling tricks you read about here. I use cruise and in the 16 miles one way I hit about three lights red. I average 40 mph. I changed from Mobil-1 5w-30 to Amsoil 5w-20 today.

I just got 37.25 MPG on 100% city street driving. That was with a lot of red lights too. It's this driving technique that is new to me called driving slower than hell. I shifted at or under 2000rpm's the whole time and kept the car under 65 at all times.
