Top mpg

Any one getting a consistant 40 to 45 or so with their Aveo?

Consistant 20 to 25 here... But then again, I don't hypermill, only time traffic lights sometimes, accellerate quickly... keep my RPM high, and stay around 70 MPH on the highway... So I know that I could be getting higher, but there's more to life than MPG, if you know what I mean.

Depends. If Canadian mpg, I regularly get 40-42. If US mpg it"s somewhere between 32-34.

i drive too hard, i have always pushed my car, going 75 or so through the backroads and hitting 105 on the highway will bring down your milage, i dont care about MPG though, i just want drive hard lol

Best mpg: 37.7. No fluke either because I got 425 miles out of that tank. All highway, 65mph.
Worst mpg: 26.7 (aside from first 1000 miles when the engine was being broken in).
In total, avg of 32 mpg, 40k continuous miles recorded.

i personally feel my gas conservation comes from the choice of car more than how i drive it.
1.6 liters will use less fuel most of the time versus a v8 or something similar.

i don't know how you people feel you have enough time in your lives to let things small things take that much longer.

Not being in a hurry is kind of nice. Most americans have no clue what i'm saying because they create this false "I have to be somewhere in 3 minutes " type of life style.... I look at it as consuming less and saving on my wallet... Plus i'm pretty relaxed when I arrive at my destination and most of the time early. It's the people that are the other way that don't allow time to drive that have road rage issues. Don't understand driving fast in a economy size car....Like driving 80 in a prius because you think it will get good enough mpg what's the point ? I guess it takes all kinds and thats what makes the world go around... I'll keep doing my thing.
