> Drive around a BMW or any other vehicle that has an instantaneous MPG gauge in the car. This will give you a much better idea how your driving habits affect fuel economy. I was able to go from 28mpg average to 32mpg average just by changing my driving habits. It is obvious the car decels when letting off the gas - you can see the gauge shoot beyond 50mpg. When I leave it in neutral and am going 20+mph, the gauge will also shoot beyond 50mpg.

im sorry my friend…  
i just graduated the STEP program, a program based completely on the education in BMW, this “shoot beyond 50mpg” is the computers way of saying, i cannot calculate, its not the actual mpg… good try though
