From 38mpg to 45mpg on 07 hatchback by hypermiling and detailing exterior - Toyota Yaris Forums

Sorry to revive my old thread but I think part of the improvement could have been from drafting behind large trucks 70-80% of the time. On my way back from Los Angeles, I was only able to obtain 38mpg where I still drafted behind trucks 50% of the time and stayed under 60mph, usually 50-55mph. Not sure how everyone else in this forum is getting 40-60mpg easily on the freeway.
