New Car. Auto 4 Dr. Sedan. Direct me to easy 40+MPG - Toyota Yaris Forums

Hello,

I purchased a 2010 Yaris Automatic Sedan last week.

I read up about DFCO but I am not sure how it would work on an automatic... so I not sure if this applies to me.

I plan to increase my air pressure up to 40PSI. I also been driving at 60mph on the first tank.

I know slimmer tires are better. I currently ave 185 /60R15. What slim size tire can I safely put on.

I know you guys try to keep rpm below 2000RPM.. but driving at 60 puts me between 2000 to 2500RPM

Thanks!

I wish i could help, i just bought a 2007 yaris sedan "automatic" and i have to take the highway to work everyday. So i drive at around 100 kms/hr and that revs at around 3000. The best i've done is 460 kms to the tank. I'm trying hard to drive easy, but it's tough. lol.
