Well, I netted 42.8 average mpg at my first tank of gas. It was a surprise to me since EPA rate this car 38mpg at highway; yet my driving including 20% city.
However, this behavior changed after my 2nd tank of gas. I fuel it up at Costco with 87 unleaded last week and so far I am only getting only 37.8mpg average on half tank so far.
This makes me believe the 1st tank number may not be a typical number. I got my first full tank of gas from dealer and I didn't know what they put in.
I am going to fill my next tank with 91 from Costco and to see if I can regain 42+ number. That would be worth it since the price difference between 87 and 91 is only like 6%, if I can go 10% more miles then I will do it from now on.
