@rek636 i was doing 57mph in a 65mph zone, they were getting probably 8-20mpgs in their hogs, i got over 50mpgs on this trip, i just hadda watch my rear view mirror so one of them didn't hit me, my foot was hovering over the gas and i always kept an eye on the mirror. i wasn't in a rush, i knew i'd be home around noon. the speed limit was 65mph, it wasn't a minimum, at times i've done 85mph in a 55mph zone, when i'm late for something, i planned this trip in advance, no rush!
@rek636 when i'm doing 85mph and passing everyone is funny too, looks like this too, 'cept i'm the one in the fast lane, and i drop to 40mpgs. i'm in it for fun, i bought the car in '07, before gas prices were an issue. i like this car, getting 50+mpgs is just a bonus now!
@taofledermaus kinda different from your videos of 600 to 1200 frames per second ;) i had the option of one frame every second, five seconds or 30 seconds, the later two options would make the video too silly at a mile a minute, at a frame a second, the video has continuity visually.
@Neonspinnazz30 yeah, i planned a leisurely trip, even at an average speed of 50mph, i break 50MPGs! now with the area 451 cruise control it won't inflict pain on my body holding pressure on the gas pedal for 3+ hours.
@Neonspinnazz30 actually, drafting i could get over 100mpgs, i've done it on runs to indiana for powerball tix, you can see it instantly on the scan gauge.
@Neonspinnazz30 for 402 miles, with the rally and all, i used 8.1 gallons, this is actual "fill-ups" and i top it off! all the sitting and idling really sucked.
this is a total JOKE, google places an AD for the CHEVY VOLT on my video, the volt can't touch 50mpgs or cruise 180 miles on one charge!

@mrbadx19 That's very impressive...however I bet if you tailgated a semi (although not recommended) I bet you could've broke 60mpg.

@mrbadx19 From 41mpg to 100mpg...these cars are quite impressive.

@Neonspinnazz30 if i hired a semi to drive 55mph and lock that, i could do an easy 100mpgs for any distance, why hasn't smart thought of that?
