60 MPG with the 1.5 MT gasser!? Man I’d love that. With my hilly commute and me having troubles keeping the 45 mpg tanks terrain is going to dictate what I can achieve. I’m thinking 50 is about all I will be able to manage. Not that I won’t try for more but that might be just out of my range.

I did have almost a 55 mpg average, for 50 mile trip, home a couple times by going 20 miles out of my way for shopping. That I could improve on by traveling it a couple times but it would actually use more gas overall to get the better number. I just picked to live in a crappy mpg commute location.

Yeah, I wouldn't think 60 is attainable unless the person driving has a lot of refined technique and the weather and commute allows for extreme driving, but I bet it's easy to get if those criteria are met.

In my experience, anything in the mid to high 40's is not attained without a lot of discipline, so even on my relatively easy commute, you'd be doing great with those numbers.
