I finally got tired of the measly increases I have seen in my little Saturn. I had mentioned before that I wasn't going try too many crazy things to the car.
However, midway through the last tank, I decided to inflate my tires to the maximum allowable pressure to try and reduce rolling resistance. Let's see how it changes my next tank of gas. Except that Hopey will be taking it to school tomorrow....
Last tank: 33.56 mpg
I'm thinking I have slacked a little bit with the hypermiling. Not to mention trips to lunch with multiple people in the car (highway driving so I end up having to push the engine a little harder).
Time to try again....
