I ended up with 49.8 mpg with 294 miles on the computer. I was at two pips so I filled up 10 miles into my ride home. I got 7.2 gallons into the tank. I am so pleased with my mpg so far. Check out what I got for the rest of the ride home. This car ROCKS!!!!! Ellen [attachmentid=5072]
Ellen: Contrats on the great mileage!!! Not that I'm competitive or anything, but ..... Had my first fill up today, too. ODO showed 320 miles. Computer showed 50.3 mph. Car took 6.06 gallons, (which divides out to 52.8 mpg)but I may have used a touch more gasoline since I didn't top off. My wife gets the car for the next week, so we'll see how she can do. Dont cha love the car!!!
Good Job! You have stared, now is the time to join the hyper milers. Now is the time it is in your grasp.

The funny thing is I haven't changed my driving habits much except to slow down alittle on the higway. I think I have always coasted into my stops so it has been kinda natural. This morning the temps were in the low 50's and I did notice a drop in my mpg. I bet your wife does great too. Ellen

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Lola'05 @ Sep 21 2006, 07:37 PM) [snapback]323140[/snapback]</div> I was wodering the same thing. Has this happened to anyone else?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Ellen Aparicio @ Sep 21 2006, 08:02 PM) [snapback]323156[/snapback]</div> Has not happened with Lola.
I've had it happen a couple of times...in my case it was because I was at a stand still for 5 or more minutes without turning the car off. Therefore the computer calculated zero mpg for that 5 minutes.
