if you're mostly driving in the city, it's hard to get 40mpg. if you're driving mostly freeways, try to stay at a constant speed throughout the trip. 65 mph gets me 39 mpg average. keep in mind, that's an average of my type of driving. i've gotten 51 mpg by driving 55 mph (98%) freeway.

i don't do jack rabbit starts and i shift (if you have a mt) no later than 2,500 rpm.
