It was awhile back (about 2 month) as I'm still running my 15's but yes I did get 55.5 cal. It wasn't easy though as I would rank it similarly in difficulty as the 61.6 cal. I got recently on my 15's. Like I said earlier, u look to be getting the hang of it too & considering u have 18's, 51 cal. is impressive as I know it takes some effort to get it to 50 even on my 17's. & yes, familiarity is key as I get some of my better mileage on routes that I'm familiar with as I know the usual spots where I can usually hypermile more easily than other areas where I have to drive normal.

Spot on! I am really not driving more conservatively...or at least I do not feel I am. But man...it keeps getting better. Right now I got 300 miles on this tank and pulling 55.1 cons. Whatever it is...I hope I keep doing it! LOL
