Great job, zerofloat! That's very close to my second tank (38.96 MPG).

I just fueled up for my 5th time today and got 46.40 MPG.

Come join me at CleanMPG.com and we'll get you up in the mid-40's without breaking a sweat!

On a different note I know your MPG pain with the larger vehicles. I used our Tacoma to haul our boat (4,800 pounds with fuel and trailer) over the mountain for a fishing trip the weekend before last and got just 13.5 MPG.

That's a damn sight better than most folks could do on that trip (my Father-in-law only gets about 7-8 MPG on that haul with his weak sauce Tahoe) but I still feel guilty about it. TerraPass, here I come!

Heya, Armavir!

I'm curious... All I see on CleanMPG.com is your 2006 Honda Civic. Are you going to log your Yaris on there, too?

Bailout THANKS for the link to CleanMPG.com, picked up some great tips there. Last two fills were 40 and 43 MPG

My first gas tank calculation: 7.458 gallons 341.6 miles = 45.8 m/g

I accelerate at my leisure and then lock in the cruise at 55. Cruise with a manual is so much better than automatic -- no kicking down in gear going up hill.

I only have 800 miles on the car. The gas mileage should get better as the car breaks in.
