^^Yup, if a BMW does it, it's amazingly great. When a Yaris does it, then

When I drive aggressively my stock Yaris gets a respectable 32 mpg on average. When I am careful and use the Ecometer I can get over 50 mpg on a flat highway. It seems odd that Consumer Reports says this car has poor road handling and acceleration. Mine handles really good. I did add the TRD sway bar. Once I got used to the automatic and the computer learned my driving habits it has plenty of power with little to no hesitation. That's why I still own it. Other than troubles with batteries going dead because of my first defective Ecometer, there have been Zero. The new Ecometer has been in the car for a good while now and so far the battery is good. I live in snow country and all I have is a good set of studded winter tires and it drives great. No ABS or any other traction devices either. I think this is a clever roomy well thought out unique little smile getter that I have no plan on selling any time soon. I shortened the gas pedal and removed the foot rest and have enough additional leg room to be quite good on long drives. Great fun.
