ptjones Posted February 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Congratulations! The Enterprise recently pulled to 48.5 Lifetime but there you go, pulling ahead again! I can hear you singing now: "You can't catch me, I'm the High Mileage Man!" But for the year (since end of April - my car's birthday), The Enterprise is at 49.6 mpg! Some recent good runs have helped pull it out of the winter doldrums. Last 3 fill-ups (car indicated) were 565 miles @ 51.4 mpg, 130 miles @ 56.5 mpg and 634 miles @ 54.1 mpg! The two longer ones were virtually all "highway". I ran a 75 mile stretch of Interstate at (mostly) 65 to 67 mph and got 57 mpg indicated - helped by a bit of tail wind! Boy, does head versus tail wind sure make a difference. Total miles are now past 120,200 with total EV about 50,400.Can you post Life Time pic so I can up date your info. I want you to have some fun so I won't post mine. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowStorm Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 OK Paul, here's the latest info "hot off the dash"! BTW, my Regen miles were at 355 when reset in the Aug 2013 upgrade so total should be 1243 miles. Brake score at that time was 95% so no change there.

joshg678 Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) I would if I could :(I do use the avg mpg as my lifetime MPGs. Reset it when I got the car at 6k and it's at 12k now. I was at 47.1MPG but got down to 42 on my 1k miles trip on the interstate. Back up to 45.1MPG now :) Edited May 21, 2017 by joshg678 ptjones and C-MaxSea 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG ROCCO Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Our 2013 was 45.9 MPG lifetime after ~ 30K miles when it was totaled. Our 2015 replacement has settled in at the last few months at a steady 45.0 MPG lifetime after ~13K miles. The 2013 was driven more on long, highway trips to the AZ mountains, when we had a second home there. The 2015 is used mostly for short trips, around town.

SnowStorm Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Way to go, Paul! The Enterprise is "only" at 48.7. Now its time you head for a Lifetime of 50.0 MPG! Run a few tanks at 25 or 30 mph - that should do it. You might even get that record 1000 mile tank I predicted was possible! kyledamron1, ptjones and obob 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
