Man, how in the world do you average 28 mpg!

Here's mine from gas cubby....



Average of about 22.3

Basically big spikes are long trips. Medium spikes are short trips followed by normal driving. And the rest is my daily drive to work.

Here is my car on fuelly. It's interesting how my stats are almost EXACTLY the same as jaor.s2k for avg, last and best MPG, even though I do more highway driving. I'm sure my hwy/interstate mpg would be even higher if I stuck closer to 70 mph than 80mph. I track my mpg on all of my vehicles for two reasons: to track if any "problems" crop up (if your driving habits do not change, but your mpgs drop significantly... something is wrong) and because I like statistics when they are relevant to something I enjoy. I'm not trying to hyper-mile my s2k, but there is nothing wrong with it if somebody does

I find the type of gas you put in the car (Brand) makes a huge difference. I've seen a 20 to 50 mile per tank difference between brands. Shell gas gives me the best miles per gallon average, with mixed driving I get 23 to 25.5 per gallon (AP1).

I always fuel up with non-ethanol 93 octane gas and it works great.
I drive 65% city and 35% highway and at least get 300 miles to a full tank.
Try to avoid any ethanol mixed gas.

Damn, that must suck!
Not to rub it in but I've got 3 stations within a 10 mile radius that sells them.
