I just 28 MPG

Yup I slowed down a lot.

I think everyone on the highway is laughing at me.
Look that guy we just pasted.
He sweating to death with the windows rolled up.
It's is such a nice day. Why doesn't he roll the windows down?
I guess the drag is less on the car with the windows rolled up.
It must save gas.
I guess he doesn't have a/c. Maybe he's trying to save gas?
Why is he driving so slow?
Nice car. Too bad it's so slow.

Well not really. I have the a/c set to 78degF.

I have been accelerating real slow. The tach stays below 2500 while getting on the highway and below 2000 when pulling away from a TL. I have not been using the cruise control because the rev's go over 2500 and it's not as smooth as my foot in traffic. I know I can get better MPG now because I got this 28 mpg with some stop and go traffic on the highway.

I was getting 23mpg and at 28 mpg that's a 22% improvement.

This car is amazing.

I have to have a very light touch on the throttle to get this 28 mpg and now fo course it's more prone to the 2-3 flare.

Did I say thanks to "supersonic"?

There is also engine pinging going on at the light throttle while going up hills. Any thoughts on that? O2 and knock sensors are good.
