Kind of an amazing trip to work early this morning. I usually go mostly highway but I needed gas and went a different way. I usually avoid this particular road because there are literally 15 traffic lights on my 9 mile commute.
I took that road today. At the gas station, I put about 2/3 of a bottle of Regane in before I filled up. I figured with all this talk of injector issues, it couldn't hurt even though I use top tier gas.
The stars must have been aligned perfectly because at 5 AM no one was on the road and I only hit 2 of the 15 traffic lights. I probably averaged a little under 50 mph for the drive.
When I got to work, I couldn't believe what I saw on the screen...
The crazy thing is I didn't hit those two lights until the last mile of the trip. I was actually getting 61+ mpg at that point!
So yeah, if you're wondering, part throttle cruising and a tune can equal really good mileage.
