Default RE: gas mileagesucks!!!

I read that to mean 60-65 mph not mpg.

ORIGINAL: leohd

Now, when I lived in downtown Chicago, I got as low as 28 because it was all stop and go, stop light to stop light. I've done some tweaking since then plus open road at a steady cruise will always give you the best mileage, say 60-65.
try a calculator to figure out your mpg 60-65 MPG??????? unless this&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;is this on your moped or hybrid car
