Or in my case, I'll be doing really well, and seeing a visible difference on the rate of gauge falling, only to lose it in a moment of rage or boredom, floor it, take the engine round to the red a couple of times, and completely undo all my hard work in a moment of madness.
I tried to get 40 mpg average from a tank in the Volvo once. I failed (by 1.2 mpg). I will never bother again. It was hell.
