Anyone else driving how they want and not caring all that much about MPG? I mean sometimes it's fun to try to keep the bar next to the speedometer in the ECO range, but outside of that I'm not letting a MPG goal decide how I'm driving. I know it's better than any car I've driven before (23 mpg at best) and that's really all I care about. I bought this car because of the brand, body size, wheel size, e-CVT, hatch, and looks. The high MPG was just a bonus. But who knows, maybe one of these days when I make a 300 mile trip I'll get bored and try going full eco mode.

Yup.
Anything above 12mpg is a bonus for me. Came from a gas guzzler and I drive how I like to drive.

I'm at almost 15k miles and I was always running around 44-47mpg.
I recently put on some 19 inch 235s and hitting 42-45mpg now.

Definitely going to try what Preebee said though--going to turn off my AC for a while. I've never really turned it off since day one as I never considered how it might affect MPG.
