Yeah! Small victory: my first 50mpg/500 mile tank!
 

I know it's small beans, but it's a great personal milestone.

I can get crazy good mileage on short trips, but this is my first tank of 5s.

50.0 and 500 miles.

:D

good job! My new commute doesn't let me get much above 43 mpg. Especially now that it's getting cold.
keep up the good work!

Nice!
 

It only gets better from there! Well, then we hit winter and it all gets crappy again :(.

Cheers to personal milestones!

Depends on where you live. Summer has been killing me here in the Phoenix area, but now that it's cooling down and I can drive with no AC and my windows down, I'm getting much better mileage. I just had my personal best tank of 675 miles on 10.7 gallons.
BTW, way to go on the 5's!

that is hard to do for a whole tank ;) I tend to want to pass those semi's too often. For half of the tank I get 60MPG and the other half I get like 42 LOL. If you don't mind doing 55-60MPH behind a semi on freeway trips you can get 60's pretty easily but it is incredibly hard to be patient enough to do that.

Yes, Fall is kind. :D

I've been pretty spoiled since I bought at the end of August, and the weather has been nice enough to go without A/C. I dread the winter!
