I must say that the car definately exceeded my exectations. I just purchased the car last friday and have completed my first road trip over the weekend. I averaged 40 mpg throughout the trip and had no issues. I love this car!

I picked my car up 2 weeks ago today and am loving it. I haven't got the gas mileage everyone else seems to be getting 41mpg tank 1, and 44.5 tank #2. I am very happy with getting 40plus mpg though and the car is great. I am hooked!
