This is the fuel economy forum. For discussions on autocross please see the racing forum. If you can get any of the folks over there to test anything other than a butt dyno please let me know.

What about them? In over 6 million miles of road testing not one driver has ever reported early suspension component replacement or interior trim pieces jumping off or mounts/bushings failing. Those kinds of events are usually related to things like autocross.

Please show your math as I cannot tell when your amount of $20 came from. Most Yaris drivers average 32 MPG. I average about 48. Over the 17k miles I drive each year that saves 177 gallons of fuel. At a price of $2.25 per gallon that saves me about $400 per year.



supmet, I'm not sure why you continue to hang out in the fuel economy forum as you don't seem to have much interest in it and you consistently deride the practices of those that do. You seem to thrive only on misinformation and alarmism and continue to do so in the face of mountains of data and practical examples that contradict you. Please feel free to frequent other parts of the forums that are more in line with your personality and personal desires.
