I know it's low RPM in the highest gear right? My Yaris doesn't have an RPM gauge so I can only tell by how loud the engine sounds and I can't really tell. I think I hear it the softest at 45-50 mph I generally go about 55-60 on the highway. |

Do you have a Scangauge? It would in an invaluable tool for this, as it can tell you instantaneous MPG as well as RPMs

A single speed is not the best way to get the best gas mileage. I assume you have an A/T though. Hypermiling is a term you want to get familiar with for the best gas mileage. Now how far you are willing to go is a different story.
I do agree getting a Scangauge is the first thing you should do to get better gas mileage.Scangauge from MI. The check out all the threads in the Fuel Economy forum. There is a ton of stuff their to help you get better gas mileage.
