2 Year Anniversary FE Report

[NYC-SE]

So I took my car in today for the final free ToyotaCare scheduled maintenance. Seems like a good time to reflect on my 2 years of ownership.

As of today I have 14.5K miles on the car and overall I am very pleased with it. I have had no issues attributable to Toyota. (There was one issue with the first ToyotaCare maintenance but that was a dealer fault, not Toyota proper. I used a different dealer after that.)

I did have one SLIGHT accident where someone hit me from behind and dislodged the bumper cover. I snapped it back into place. No one would ever know. Also one SLIGHT door ding from some parking lot idiot. About par for the course in NYC.

As for mods I have added a TRD rear sway bar and have installed mirror turn signals. Now my car looks like a proper ROTW Yaris.

I have tracked my Fuel Economy since my first tank. My overall average to this point is 33.8 MPG. The vast majority of my driving is city stop and go traffic, (not necessarily gridlock but I've had my share of that as well) but I do get on the highway about 2-3 times a month. Also my car is automatic transmission. Pretty good as far as I am concerned.

My best tank was 41.2 MPG. That was an all highway trip. My worst tank was 28.8 MPG. That was an all city tank in the dead of winter. I have only had one other tank below 30 MPG and that was also during winter.

Love the car. Definitely made the right choice.
