Hmm Im all for doing everything possible to get max mpg but taking the rear seat etc out down to bare metal (then losing lots o parts and forgetting how to put them back) isnt going to be good when the time comes to sell the car.

BTW now that its been 5 degrees here for a couple of months and Im making lots of 1 and 2 miles trips Im getting 26 mpg!

Really if you want mpg dont mod the Yaris get a manual ECHO. My manual 2001 ECHO got 53 mpg on the only LD trip I took to AC and back at 60 mph and 40 mpg driving 6 miles to work.
