Well done, Jeff!

The Silver HCHII's obviously get better mileage than the other colors! ;-D

I don't know if I've ever mentioned it, but mine is silver too.

I'm getting ready to fill up today. 617 miles on the tank so far. I figure, based on past tanks and mileage that I still have about 70 more miles in this particular tank. I hope that my figures aren't too far off because I need to travel 17 miles to my favorite ethanol free station.

Interesting that the silver cars seem to be in the lead. Perhaps because we are the color of LIGHTNING!!!!

My latest tank: 62.9 mpg over ~670 miles
That's probably close to my best....

Since consciously lowering my overall freeway speed at the end of the spring, all of my tanks have been above 52MPG.

My best fill-up happened a couple of days ago. I had gone 653 miles, still had about 1.4 gallons left and the overall fuel efficiency was 59.2.

This was even more amazing for me because most of that was on trips that are usually lower-than-normal mpg.

Have to say, watching the FE is total driving entertainment. How geeky is that?

I don't know...~$1,750 per gallon is pretty steep for gasoline.

I did get a free car withe gas, though.
