Think about hypermiling. Then do it, with zero regard to safety or speed minimums or anything else.

The top few guys here drive like 99.99% of people would never even dream of, never mind actually want to.

It is unrealistic for most people in most situations, as 1 lives in an extremely rural area, and another drives through extremely mountainous regions every day.

Getting over 40 mpg is a great achievement in this car without modifications.
