The Gas Sway? - Toyota Yaris Forums

you can probably assume 1mpg per 100lb...roughly. and this all depends on weight to begin with, power, and gearing...but you can assume 1mpg/100lb

so, take your .13mpg and decide to coast instead of hitting the gas and you'll get it back...or, you can decide to lose 13lbs and make it up.

I dont know if that is 100% accurate because I'm a big ol fatty, bout 375 and I still get an average of 36mpg. I've even get close to 40 before during long trips.
