i was wondering what rpms you guys shift at, and what rpms you cruise at to get the best mpg and what mpg do you get. i get from 19-21 average, i dont always drive like a grandma though.
-------------------- My car = 0-60 in ~9sec
It's slow, I know |

Dont care what gas milage I get, no short shifting and poncing about, dont concentrate on what RPM`s I shift....why???? shift when you feel your car needs to change gear thats it. Cars are meant to be driven, have fun and enjoy your car...after all thats why we are car enthusiasts. If you wanna conserve fuel, buy a little baby honda or something that drives forever on a teaspoon of fuel and would lull you to sleep in a thunder storm. I`d rather get out of my car with a smile on my face than worrying about how much fuel I just saved driving like miss daisy.
