Don't worry! I enjoy seeing fellow members showing their good sense of humor.
Just hope no one gets carried away and goes off topic too far because the moderator can be watching

Got 27 MPG (US) again.

Reportedly, the Yaris has been ranked among the top most fuel efficient cars and awarded accordingly by the Fed at the recent Torronto Auto Show. Beneath is the link to the relevant video. If you are interested, click the link, wait a few seconds for the announcer/commercial to finish and the show to start, then move the seek button under the screen toward the end of the TV program (i.e. the 51th minute of the 58-minute show) to skip the lengthy materials irrelevant for this post and you will see the Yaris right there.

Interesting enough, the Honda Fit, reportedly, won a similar award on the same occasion in the Station Wagon Class.

nsmitchell · 02-19-2007, 01:07 PM

I've been too embarassed lately to post my MPG numbers. Well they have been around 27-29MPG. It is pretty cold in the mornings. I drive it nice and easy while the cool light is on. I stomp on is some after that. Still this sucks!

Man.... 200 kilometers to go down to half a tank, and I'm now at 250 and only have 2 bars left, and I've been driving in much the same manner... weird... I usually refuel at this point, but I'll wait for one bar this time.

i consider this number is not surprising as this has been my readings so far for 100% city driving...

Razr · 02-20-2007, 07:28 PM

When I drive: 12.24 KM/L, 8.17 L/100km, 28.76 MPG (US)
When the wife drives: 14.74 KM/L, 6.78 L/100km, 34.65 MPG (US)

Same basic driving circumstances (80% city, 20% highway), just a slightly different driving style :P

There's effectively no driving law enforcement here at all, and even if you did get clocked speeding it's a $10 fine ($5 if you pay at the "window") with no demerit point system. I'm just taking advantage of it all before they change their minds :)
