Highway driving, the best I have gotten was at 120km/h, I can get 6.5L/100km. And I can get that on average on the highway. I've gotten 675km to a tank of fuel, with about 4 litres of fuel left.
Combined city/highway, I usually get 9.6L/100km and I drive with a heavy foot. |

I put 89 in the tank this time and am about 130 miles into it. Usual commute mpg numbers are up from 27 to 30 and she has noticeably more pep. I'm pretty sure this is placebo but anyone else ever notice this?

Refueled last weekend. Hand calc. indicates a little over 30 MPG avg. Getting caught in heavier traffic, doing shorter trips, and using A/C more often this summer.

I've also noticed that my hand calculated MPG is off from what the car says. The car seems to be high by about 2 MPG. Got 32, 31 and 30 and calculated 30, 29, and 28. Still fairly decent gas mileage. I drive about an even amount of city and highway, but all the highway has a lot of hills. I've also taken a couple trips up into the mountains with an elevation increase of over 5,000 feet. I need to get some nice flat highway miles to see what I can get with the CVT.

If it under-measures by 3% that would mean you actually went 412 miles. With 412 miles for that same tank it would be 29.4 mpg. That would actually be about 1 mpg lower than the mpg the car calculates, and 1 mpg lower than the hand calculated mpg. On another note, the larger tires I put on my car are also putting the speedometer off by around 0.4% under. So I'm probably getting slightly better than what the car is calculating too. |

EPA economy tests call for E0, and this is their excuse:

Can't you see, your supposed to eat the corn or you don't get dessert, then you get your dessert taken away because you ate the corn. This way its a win-win. Collect money from each power player, and then just tell us minions that we really shouldn't be concerned because dessert is bad anyway. ;-) 100% second your post. |

I ran last 3 tanks with 87 E10. My car ran like a suicidal inmate on death row ( a white inmate, kinda fat and lazy- since it best represents myself and I'm not offending anyone) , then filled up today while empty, with 91 No E- and before I was out of the lot it pepped up like it just received a pardon. My imp doesn't run well with ethanol. My Tahoe loves it, running E85 it'll scream with it, but my car hates it.

C'mon guys - don't you know ADM is broke? Don't you feel sorry for their stockholders? It's just big business, scamming the American people and starving the rest of the world so they can make ethanol out of corn instead of feeding people...
They really deserve those trainloads of cash shipped from Washington that they get by just spending a little "donating" to politicians who give them their votes. Don't they? |

I just got 45.9 MPG over my 30 mile mixed commute with E0 87.
This is about 25% above my typical MPG on E10. The 10% price premium is easily justified, and that's without considering long term fuel system and engine wear. |

Driving what? I wish we had 87 E0, havnt seen it. I did hear talk about bringing in 84 blended though. If they do that, I think I'll open up a mechanic shop. Any mechanics looking for work in the Midwest? Seems they are hellbent on destroying every vehicle in the road one way or another. Wonder who lobbied for that blend?

I did a trip from Mountlake Terrace WA (Just north of Seattle) to Las Vegas and back via Crater Lake (wow, what a view) the week before Labor Day. I averaged 32 mpg for the whole trip. That includes the around town stuff while I was in Vegas. My best 'tank' (hand calculated) was 35 mpg.
I'm quite happy with the fuel economy I got out of my Sport. The route I took had a lot of altitude change (after I crossed the Cascades on I-90 about as low as I got was 2000') with a lot above 4000 and a few climbs to 7000+. The car was a bit sluggish at 7000'. |
