38.8 Miles Per Gallon

so gas is crazy now... I really want a Moped Scooter... like soooo bad... 75+ MPG would be heavenly... if anyone has one for cheap let me know...

this past weekend i got 38.8 MPG in the Civic... i couldn't believe it... i did the math 3 times and I'm still in shock... here are some things i did...

1. No Air Conditioning, the windows were rolled down.

2. I went at or below the speed limit.

3. I used the cruise control on flat and straight roads.

4. i pretended like i had no brakes. When I saw the speed limit was lowering or a stop sign was coming up I let off the gas and cruised to the lowered speed. (breaking only if I needed to stop)

5. I refrained from over-accelerating. start slow. stay slow.
