What do you drive and how many MPG do you get?

What IS your actual milage?
My girl's friend has one on 16" ricer wheels, and her MPG isn't NEARLY what I thought it would be.
I have 17"s on mine and even though I don't have city/highway ratings, my best tank was worked out to about 48 mpg while I average about 41mpg. The farthest I got highway was about 480 miles on one tank which isn't bad considering the size of the tank.

I need a yaris.

 
And it only costs about $45 to fill from empty which is great considering we pay $1.33 a litre (I have no clue how much that is in gallons, but you guys pay way less in the States).
Yeah. I remember filling up in Stuttgart a few years ago. Out on the economy, it was rediculous.

But then again, Germany has KILLER public transportation. It's a two way street.

 
1996 Honda Accord

2.2l 4cyl 150k miles

30+ hwy with no sub

29 hwy with sub

23 city with sub

Pros: Reliable for the most part, nice interior with room

Cons: Automatic and slow //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Some minor repairs so far - axles and starter. Soon to be ball joints I think, since every time i go over a bump I get a popping thunking noise.

Question? Did you get your computer recalibrated for the 17's? Toyota told me that it needs to be done going to larger rim so your mileage and your speed reads correct. Reason I ask is I can't get anything close to your MPG's in my 07 Yaris. Best I've ever gotten is 36mpg. What was your mpg before rims?

I don't drive that crazy and only do about 70mph on highway. I use synthetic oil and take care of it and don't have much in the car as for weight. Is there some secret to getting this car to do that high? Please share.

07 Toyota Yaris Around 35mpg highway or city.
