BTW, I get around 17city / 20HWY (@80mph) with s 5cyl and grindbox.
20 mpg is pretty darn good...especially at 80! You'll have to publish your secret as the epa only got 18 mpg at 65 mph.
Yes, because we all know that the EPA's testing methodologies are perfect They redesigned their tests not too long ago due to all theinaccuraciess.

I was using the "new improved" epa estimates from this year (right off the hummer website). I thought everyone had to use these starting in 2008? The epa numbers have been crap in the past (impossible to achieve,even the prius numbers came way down) but now are a bit more accurate and reflect average driving habits.

they used to use an acceleration of 2mph/s for their calculation, they now use a more realistic 8mph/s....
