The first tank I computed was around 36 MPG. Went a lil over 360 miles to like 9.6 gallons I think.

I got 35 mpg my first tank without doing anything special, other than not hot-rodding like a jackass. This is with mostly rural and city driving.

MY MPG is improving as I put more miles on the car.

With 1300 miles on the car I just got my best MPG 29.7
the lifetime average is 27.38

This is just so odd, I'm reading posts like this and I'm beginning to think I got a "magic" yaris.. I never get less than 33mpg, ever! And my over all average is 34.6mpg. I've got 11,564 miles on the car and have been keeping track. I drive the crap out of the lil' car... 80Mph (+) on the freeway and working the twisties pretty hard on my daily return commute from work..

It's just really weird the wide variance in mileages, other owners are getting.

Currently my drive to work is only 6 miles one way. The car barely has time to warm up before the ride is over. That kills mileage.

in fact it's not a matter of engine - it will broke-in within 1-200 miles
a new O2 sensor has to be "burned" in order to return good mileage, the higher the engine is revved the hotter the O2 gets and the fastest it will broke-in

I'm on my second tank, but this is the first tank that I've calculated. I got 33 mpg, that was 100% city driving and almost always using the a/c (it's hot here in Arizona). While I hope the mileage gets better, it's still loads better than my old Chevy S10.

Got 3,300m on my automatic liftback and get 35 normally....20 miles to work....but on a recent 900 mile trip got 31/32 but drove 75 to 80mph all the way. I keep track of every drop I've put in it, cause I expected better but not too disapointed.

I got 31 MPG, still driving hard. This is my first result after using Amsoil PI. A little better than the 27-28MPG I was getting.

No sidewalks, and as much as I love trudging through muddy ditches, I usually drive allllll the way across the street.

Then when I leave and I'm all pissed off, I can just hop in and cruise out to the CVNP and cruise. Eases the mind.
