Default Re: First real-world mileage tests

Dammit I'm jealous... I might have the car in 10 days and I can't wait. If I get it, it'll be a gray/ash base model.

Jason is going to have to redefine "hypermilers" for the TCH since obviously beating 39 mpg is trivial if you want to, and your car isn't even broken in! Maybe +10% of EPA? 44 mpg or better?

Please keep us updated, especially on the mileage when doing usual day-to-day driving... city/suburb driving in other words.

How'd you measure trip MPG; does the navigation unit have a trip MPG function? I couldn't find one on the non-nav cars; there was tank MPG but no trip MPG that I could find.

Oh, and tell us your dealer.
