It has been reported here that some of the Vues get horrible mileage. One guy even drove 4 of them before he got one that got good mileage. Follow HybridVues advice and get her in for the new wiring harness and a checkup to see what is going on with it. Mine got 29mpg first tank and I am thankful I got one of the good ones but yours should be fixable. Worst case conditions, ie: a lot of short hop city driving, you should get at least 25mpg I would think. I do a lot of highway driving, albeit kinda hilly and am getting right at 32mpg now. I have increased my tire pressure to 40 psi and attached a ScanGuageII so I can better watch how my driving habits affect my mileage. Keep us posted on the outcome and I'm hoping it's a good one for you!!
