hi yo, and all that...with Immanuel Transmission, I get 55MPG if I drive at 50MPH, and about 70MPG at 35-45MPH. Speed Kills...your MPG. Using a Scan-Gauge II (highly recommended). Unfortunately, I drive a lot to New York City, about 200 miles round trip...so my average MPG reflects a lot of highway miles (at a lower MPG) and at higher (blush, 60MPH) speed. As it is, everything is passing me.
