Lately I've been taking it easy on the old gal and I've been getting the best mpgs I have even gotten. Considering she's the heaviest weighing Focus (ZTW, loaded) with an atx, I'm not complaining.

WTF I hate you. I never even got anywhere near that with my regular ZX3.
Wait, let me guess. You did that with the car on jackstands and the cruise set at 55 mph

Na, I drove the posteds, but stayed out of the gas as much as possible and used neutral at stoplights. This was with a guesstimated 65/35% highway/city. I even used a/c when it warmed up enough. Coasted down a hill or two *still in gear.Wait, let me guess. You did that with the car on jackstands and the cruise set at 55 mph
I've never run her to 410. I've peaked over 400 a couple of times. When I refilled, she took in 12.9 gallons, leaving .3 gallon in the tank. Edmunds lists the ZTW weight about 180lbs more than a ZX3, and the atx mpg as 23/29 city/highway with 382 miles per highway tank. I must of got a good tune way back when lol.
