finally getting good mpg in the 2.2

well I always kept my foot out of this car because I wanted the mpg to be decent but after buying it I was only getting like 24-26 city

well I didn't realize how much difference coasting made in this car... if you can coast for a long distance do it... slowing to a light I just let it cruise

I finally got 32 mpg in the city... still about 34 on the highway but dang!

I use the crap out of the cruise control button also and have 0 mods done

If you were getting 26 city already, you were doing pretty well. Kudo's on 32 city!
