I'm no longer thinking in mpg terms; it's more of fpm, as in fillups per month. Before I stopped w**king and commuting 135 miles per day I filled up the old Camry twice a week. Now it's twice a month, maybe. Just shows that not driving is better than higher mpg. It helps to live in a smaller community too; trips are shorter. And I find it useful to combine errands as much as possible. Being well invested in commodity futures that include oil makes the whole package a little easier to stomach.
