It's really hard to do. lol.

Not sure how accurate the MPG gauge is in the Premium but since I started driving slow I can make 2 1/2 trips to work and back before I fill it up again. Still too many miles and I'm going to buy a beater for DD asap.
I wasa driving a 4 door Jeep on 35" tires and getting close to 15 mpg. So, the 20 mpg I'm getting out of the Mustang has been great. I'll slow try to slow down next time, lol. My commute is only every third day. There one morning, back home the next.
