    Thanks for giving us the updates!

    What has the been the average now that the tires are worn in?

    My wife got the Ecopias and her mileage went from around 52 mpg to 54.5 (Don't remember her previous brand. Had Costco ditch them.)

    Energy Saver A/S worked excellent last winter in Minnesota on country ice/snow covered and salted/slush city streets. Incredible traction for not being winter ice tires.

    Had a 2007 Yaris. LOVED it. Now have 2010 Prius and LOVE IT MORE!!! Wanted more roomy car, better mpg (Yaris 33mpg; Prius 50mpg), more storage in trunk. Yaris zips around, easy to park. Good luck!! Enjoy!!
