    Well... All those days of trying hard to get over 80 mpg and today I just drive calmly and this is what I get. Not even trying. Lol :) 1477623796664.jpg

    A drive from Reseda to The Whiskey on sunset. Went up over the 405 too, which is long and steep. Crazy. No idea my average speed.

    Nice. Just drive and let the car take care of the rest.

    Trying to maximize MPG, can be too much work for little return, compared to just driving and not even thinking about MPG.

    It can be done, just requires attention to how you drive. This is driving home from running errands last weekend.
