Broke 60 mpg - Toyota Yaris Forums

Idahotom · 06-03-2011, 07:12 PM

My usual work commute is down the mountain (1,000' drop in a couple miles) and then 10 miles or so of secondary traffic free road I drive exactly at 47 mph (using the cruise) it's mostly level with some rolling parts. Today I did the trip to the crane yard, 13.3 miles, using .22 gallons, that is 60.45 mpg.

I had to do it twice today, and of course the trip back up the mountain is a reality check, still, the total today was 53.7 miles on 1.13 gallons of fuel, or 47.52 MPG. These are calibrated ScanGauge #'s, of course the fillup will tell the real story, but the last few fillups it has been right on.
