69.3 mpg !

I've finally gotten the mileage that folks on this board have been talking about.
I have an '02 Aero sedan 5 spd with 9,500 miles on it. I reset the SID after getting on the highway and getting settled for a 200 mile trip. I was going 70-75 downhill and had to let off the gas to avoid the cars in front and the SID actuall registered 69.3 mpg! :-)
After 100-150 miles I as clocking 33.7 mpg. I ran a good long time at 34+, but ran into traffic and lost a bit.
Note that these were non-turbo miles. Generally speaking I have trouble not pushing the turbo a bit as I do enjoy it. As such, my general highway mileage has been 30-32 with around 27-28 overall average with mostly country driving. I define country driving as around town and 40-60 on two lane county roads. I live in a very rural part of New York.
Cheers,
Dave
