Re: Happy Honda Fit owner
The person didn't mention whether it was manual or auto. If it is indeed manual then they are either ignorant about its eligibility for EcoAUTO rebate (worth $1000 for 2008 Fit w/ MT) or they are lying. Also, gas hasn't reached $1.20 yet in Toronto. Until the person can say what they mean I can't take them seriously. The post smells like a baloney bomb.
The reason why I mentioned the FIT with an MT is because that happens to be the best configuration for reaching and exceeding the 50MPG's (4.7 L/100km) with a good assortment of hypermiling techniques. The FIT with Auto is an absolute under-performer and not the best tool for today's hypermiler at all...
On a side note, our gas here in Winnipeg as been at $1.20 and even over for a few weeks already. I don't know if you folks have had it at those levels either.

We're really close to $1.20 at the moment. Another note about Toronto gas is that regular grade -- 87 octane/91 RON -- is blended with up to 10% ethanol, reducing efficiency somewhat.
