May MPG averages - Post 'em here!

Most of this was driven in April. This was almost 3 mpg better than last tank, but I chickened out on the tank mileage, since the last bar started blinking at a little over 400 miles.

Most of this was driven in April. Filled when last bar was on (first fill-up)

Avg Overall Mileage: 38.6

90% shorttrip driving... still learning the coast move. But this beats the 22
MPG truck and 20 MPG station wagon I was alternating with.

 

That reminds me of my first couple of tanks with mileage in the upper 30s per gallon. Just wait. It only gets better. As the car breaks in and you fine tune your "driving for mileage" skills, the MPG will increase dramatically. After about 3,000 miles, I'm now getting over 50 mpg on each tank. What a cool car! Also, check the tire inflation tips on this board. It really helped me with my MPGs. I'm running 42 front and 40 rear.

Was able to fill 10.7 gallons without splashback! It's only been about 50-70 miles, but I'm averaging 56mpg right now. I hope Prince Bandar spends that $20 well.

Even got cheaper gas than I did! Well, right now I'm hovering in the 53-55mpg range...do you find it better to focus on the Consumption screen instead of the Energy screen?

Today, I just filled up for the 3rd time following the dealer fill when I picked up the car on March 30th. Last fill up was two weeks ago today. :lol: I filled up on the slowest pump setting and then trickled it in after the pump clicked off at 7.5 gallons. The gas tank did it's dry heaves routine but didn't throw up any gas this time. If I wanted, I may have been able to squeeze in a bit more gas but didn't want to risk gas vomit on my shoes (or in the environment for that matter).
