48 Miles per Gallon

Yes, that is correct. We traveled 250 miles on 5.15 gallons of fuel. This averages a whopping 48.54 miles per gallon. This is not a mistake; it was checked and double checked because Aleksey and I were in complete awe of my Hyundai Accents accomplishment.
This is a good time to share the fuel efficiency that the car has achieved. The following numbers are a list of the miles per gallon we calculated after every fill up:
33.26, 38.47 (WOW), 32.16, 34.0, 35.0, 30.8, 33.25, 28.57 ( =( although still great), 34.51, 31.85, 35.12, 34.66, 32.27, and finally 48.54 (Double WOW; no, TRIPLE WOW). We even achieved 33mpg climbing and descending the Rockies.

For the efficiency, yes. For driving a Hyundai, no. Haha

You are catching me on small detail, Aleksey!
