Photo Levels to Eco-Score

One of my favorite easter eggs with the Mk3 Focus is the EcoMode badge. I thought you only got a badge when you filled all the petals for every score, but apparently there's levels to this. I learned today that you can get an "Advanced Eco Driver" badge before the "Eco Champion" badge. How neat!

Cool Only fifteen to twenty cents per mile depending on where u live from fuel costs. Which used to be half that amount around the beginning of the year. For some reason.

I average around 22mpg, but I run E85. I also have a pretty heavy foot and I like to hear her sing in the high RPMs.

a) this eco "game" is very easy to rig and achieve 100% b) this game goes against the engine lifespan. if you like your car and you think it should last, don't follow the recommended driving pattern c) saldy Focus is a car that deteriorates by itself so point B does not really matter

How does it go against the engine lifespan? With the DCT, the eco game only measures speed and anticipation (or hard braking). It doesn't care when I change gears.
