so should i wait till 15k to 20k miles before i use the FP60 as well?? because i used to use Plus gas at chevron before i knew it didnt do crap and that putting regular was better, and i think it's been about 3 or 4 fill ups since i've started using regular.. you think that would make a difference as well?
You can use the FP60 at anytime. Yeah, the premium fuel doesn't do anything other than waste money

yup, just as the title says; I have reached my high score of 41 mpg from this week's tank of gas!!! My fuel tank is about 12 gallons and my low fuel light comes on when theres about 2 gallons of fuel left (kinda easy to figure out since when you put in gas, the pump stops at 10 gallons). So by doing a little bit of quick math; my light came on at around 410 miles which equates to 41mpg!!! correct me if i'm wrong cause i'm lovin my car right now
who cares if yur car is 2 seconds faster in the 0-60 than mine; i get 41mpg!! i'm wondering if anyone else gets high mpgs like this too?
thanks for all the info guys, and yea i was wondering, do you use the FP60 too?? or does your car just get crazy gas mileage? cuz i have the same car as you, as in the same model and year and stuff, but the mileage is drastically different. i dont have a lead foot either, i've been driving pretty conservatively and yet the best i've gotten is 31 mpg.
is that all highway miles? you really can't count anything else. city driving varies way too much. usually in the city i've gotten anywhere from 15-26mpg. Highway is up in the 40s. You can get the best by driving 55mph all highway miles.

hm.. really?? how would i just count highway miles?? just drive some place really far till my tank goes to the light? cuz well i guess i do half and half city and highway. and i guess i've never really had an opportunity to REALLy calculate my highway mileage cuz when i do drive from LA to home or home to LA it's normally like stop and go traffic, hm.. so i guess
haha but do you really drive 55mph all the time?? i mean i'm normally in a rush or something when i'm driving highway but i tend to drive anywhere between like... 65mph to around 80mph
ya nobody drives 55. you'll get run off the road. In chicago the limit is 55 but even if you're going 65 90% of cars will be passing you like you're stopped. If you want to do quick tests, fill the tank to full and then drive on the freeway at least 50 miles. Come back and fill up again (make sure you goto the same station and maybe pump too). See how much gas you bought and then do the math like if you drove 50miles and got 1.5 gallons gas, its 50/1.5=33mpg

hm.. even using a different pump at the same gas station might make a difference? why's that? is it just one huuuge tank underneath the gas station supplying each pump?

The auto shut off mechanism is just a simple pressure meter and each pump as it's own. They are very simple and not very accurate and they will vary from pump to pump. You can get up to a gallon difference because of the inconsistance in this simplistic devices.
i'm wondering if anyone else gets high mpgs like this too?
