Visiting Nashville, TN! What's to do? - Toyota Yaris Forums

Can't say anything about Nashville but I just got back from vacation from Gatlinburg, Sevierville, and Pigeon Forge, TN which is about an hour south of Knoxville on the east side. What a great place! A million things to do. Couldn't believe how developed it was. Looked like Vegas with a bit of country feel. I have to imagine Nashville has more stuff to do than you'd ever have time for.

With a 700lb load in my Yaris, I averaged 38.5 mpg over the 1,900 mile round trip from Massachusetts and that was while averaging 70-80 mph. Oh, and this is with 16" wheels with much wider tires than stock which is supposed to drop FE. How the hell can they rate this thing 36 highway??? Did the EPA testers flatten the Yaris with a 1,000 pound load and simulate 90 mph?
