'08 sedan w/ 4 speed auto . 40.63 m.p.g.. Tires at 35 p.s.i..

RT_Smith · 08-22-2011, 09:53 PM

'07 Sedan auto on 175/65R14's with 111,000km driving at ~105-110km/hr and 90+% highway and occasional A/C.

18.24km/liter or 52mpg

I find temperature makes a big difference. The warmer the better.

RT_Smith · 08-22-2011, 09:55 PM

That's on regular 87 octane Shell.

Yes, I've found the same....the summer heat here in Cali is doing wonders for my mileage. Record breaking actually...personal records.

You must be filling the feeder tube for the gas tank. I believe the 40+ figures for hyper milers - but not for someone that goes WOT all the time.

I really have to focus on how I drive to be able to get 40 or more...usually I come in around 39-41. My last tank, I tried non-ethanol gas and got 44.7. And now I've heard they want to put even more ethanol in the gas? Not looking forward to the bigger mpg drop when that happens.

i let the pump click off....regaurdless how i fill wont change mpg as long as its the same every time

My last tank 53.01 my personal best with the exhaust...2nd best overall...i didnt particulary drive super efficient on this tank and drove in unmastered areas

digitalrain · 09-05-2011, 10:07 PM

Malibuguy, thx for the tip on the Mobil 0w20 on the other thread.

Just curious , but how much is the cost for a jug(4.5 qts) of the Mobil 0w20 in your area? It costs $48 here. I spend around $900 a year for gas and could save around 10% using the Mobil. So I'd be down a bit if I kept the twice a year oil and filter change sched. But that doesn't take into account possibly less wear on the engine due to using synth...

Amsoil 0W-20 is $31.90 plus shipping for preferred customers on their site (preferred customers just have to pay a $10 membership for 6 months).

malibuguy · 09-06-2011, 11:53 AM

i pay about $7.80 a quart for the Eco oil & i run a Mobil 1 filter too

my previous to last tank was 52...my last tank was a road trip into the mountains...probably WOT most of the time, 44.11 mpg

digitalrain · 09-06-2011, 11:05 PM

I'm jst astounded by some of the numbers people get on this thread. I was impressed with what I had gotten for years in the Echo, but it's noticeably less than many here. I'm gonna let the engine loosen up and look after my undercoating and sway bar then try to hit some bigger MPG.

You must have a big grin every time you fill up at the gas station.

Still not getting any better than 34 Mpg..
no harsh driving.. just normal accel.. cant even hear the engine sometimes .
Am using the A/C intermittently .. turning it on after ive settled to cruise speed.

Yeah... ditto. I usually don't get better than 37MPG per fill up (with mostly freeway miles and A/C on 90% of the time) and I am at about 37MPG over 24k miles. The best I got was about 40MPG but only one way going to Vegas from LA with cruise set to 70~75MPH...

My worst tank so far was the last one @ 34MPG. But that was because I was meandering through neighborhoods looking at houses for a quarter tank.

The Limo · 09-07-2011, 11:49 PM

Best tank 5.21 litres per 100 kilometres. Cruising down the highway at 100-110 km/h on a nice sunny day.

Worst tank 8.61 litres per 100 kilometres. Some city driving and highway driving in an ice and snow storm.

Average 6.10 litres per 100 kilometres for 90k kilometres.

Love my Yaris

Roy

yes! i really feel like showing all the other people filling up the numbers just to rub it in, but i dont

TLyttle · 09-08-2011, 11:44 PM

Not me. I frequently find myself at the pumps beside some bozo with an all-decked-out dually pigup, and walk past him mumbling, "Damn, $34 to fill up again this month, that's twice..." just as his pump passes $125 or more...

But I'm naturally mean, and old enough so they don't pick a fight...

digitalrain · 09-09-2011, 12:08 AM

Too funny! Lucky you can get away with saying it. Scary it doesn't take much to fill $100 in a lot of vehicles these days.
