theocean,

Some of the people who DRIVE away with that kind of mileage have been on here long BEFORE they get their cars, so they know all the little secrets and techniques to squeeze better mileage out of the car, even though its still breaking in. Furthermore, its not hard to get good gas mileage, you just need a light foot. I averaged about 45-47 mpg on the way home from Davis when I bought the car, and that was with me knowing VERY little about driving techniques. Don't worry, your average will increase. Don't fret just yet.
