My car rules on efficiency!
I didn't even have to go a special way to get it! I just reset at the top of my driveway. (Hey, even a 20ft drop helps!) I headed toward work and noticed the efficiency hitting 9 then 10 mpk, so when I pulled out, again a bit hilly but more downhill, I watched closely and drove carefully to regen any momentum. A mile or so further and I hit 12.4 just before decelerating. Maybe it wasn't safest thing, but in the interest of seeing the biggest number, I regenned to a stop at the bottom of a hill on the road (yes, while carefully watching the mirrors for cars behind me.) and noticed 14 mpk. As I pulled away, the number continued to rise to 14.4 before it jumped back down to 12.7 and further down.
It's funny what makes you yell and give a fist pump some days. Maybe I'm just weird, (Ok, I know I'm weird, but maybe that's just another aspect of my weirdness!) but it was a fun challenge.
