    Temps were high 40s F,
    Overall I dropped about 200 feet in elevation
    Mostly slow cruising at 50 - 60 mph, only a couple miles of easy town driving with considerate stoplights.
    Note that this graph is the last 30 minutes of the drive.

    It is too bad that the graph peaks at 60 mpg ;)

    Yeah! What were they thinking having it peak at 60mpg!

    That's like Bill Gates saying we'll never need more than 640mb ram!

    I've been able to get over 60mpg (indicated) on short trips of like 25 miles after a fill-up. Usually when on the freeway kinda stuck in traffic moving at 45-55mph.

    For a full tank the best I've been able to get is 52.2mpg (indicated, 50mpg calculated).

    Not too bad from a car rated at 43mpg. =]

    ^^ Dennis,
    For about a second. I often flip into sport mode for a moment to see the rpm display instead of the power scale, and if I am slow to flip back the pedal gain changes. I am not a fan.
