Darin, does Canada have their own vehicle testing agency? The EPA numbers sure like to sell city mileage short. Like I'd rate 3 cyl Metro and Mirage 55/48 if I had to. Like I drove 13 miles home last winter on a flat tire being lazy and that trip mpg was STILL 32 with all that extra drag. I just don't get it.
I'd say you're a natural hypermiler, then :P.
