UPDATE: I'm getting 27.8 MPG on my commute. my morning uphill drive is 0.8 miles and i see 7.9 mpg on the read out while climbing the hill (on a cold engine). i try to make up the fuel economy by simply rolling downhill when i come home. i have noticed that the car will raise RPMS but since i am not on the throttle i assume its the car trying to provide engine breaking and keep itself under DFCO.
what are your opinions on taking a longer route for fuel economy? this new route i'm thinking about is 1.8 miles but it starts downhill and then flat and i would go up a less steep hill once the engine is warm.
