How did you get that kind of mileage? My '03 gets 18 at best. It has 68k miles on it.

Re: Still looking for 20

Drive like a granny .

Still looking for that sweet spot and may add a vacuum gauge.
That tank was mostly open freeway no stop and go , or very little.
But even with my normal rush hour driving I get 17-18 . I try not to piss anybody off but I do accel slowly when I can. I think thats the key.
