Damn you HIPPIES, HYPERmiling a G37 is just ludicrous. Drive that b!tch like she was meant to be driven! LOL
I'm just jealous I don't have the patience to drive like that.

I've been getting around 24.6 to 25.7 mpg average. Usually a 60/40 (Hwy/City) mix. Not bad considering the car I came from was getting 29 mpg but with only 205 horsepower.
Update: As of late the MPG has been around 26.5 with the same 60/40 mix.

I'm getting ~ 27-28 mpg @ 70-ish mph. If I push it to 80-ish (gotta love the west TX interstate speed limit!) then it drops to ~ 25-26 mpg. Non-interstate rural driving (up & down hills, lots of curves, occasional breaking for loose livestock or wildlife, etc.) I'm getting ~ 20-22 but that's being a bit heavy on the gas, at times. Did you know that if you reset your mpg gauge at the top of a long hill you'll get 99.9 mpg? Kinda fun to see that! Haven't had much chance to do much city driving.

Update:
~17 mpg @ 99% city driving
24-25 mpg @ 99% highway driving

Using 91 V-Power (Shell gas) almost exclusively during this time. Stupid Canadian gas! (Michigan has 93 octane V-power ... I almost always get better fuel economy with that fuel ...)

I had to ride out to the burbs today and its a good 50 miles worth of construction each way so I set the cruise to 55..... It was so painful, but I was able to get my average MPG up to 31 and the fuel range hit 485 miles when I filled it up this evening. Maybe I'll draft a semi tomorrow.... J/K
