For three days I drove like I had an insurance dongle attached. (Short shifting, coasting as much as possible and stepping on the gas like I was stepping on an egg.)
I managed a whooping 32.4 mpg. A whole 4.1 mpg increase!
What a waste of time!
If I wanted to save on gas I could use 91 octane. Or maybe I should just be driving a Prius. This is not what this car was designed for.
Experiment is over, not worth it, back to normal.
I love this car.

Thanks for sharing the experiment. I was wondering what you would get highway only with dongle attached [emoji4] 45-50 mpg?
Thanks
