This one is actually returning 31 MPG. It is brand new. I am having
almighty arguments with the dealer over it and am thinking of sueing
for the return of my money. He told me 40-60MPG. I do drive very light
footed and suspect that 31 is typical.


It's got to loosen up before it will give you the best mileage and you
should be booting it to avoid glazing the bores and to loosen it up.
You want to get it into the highest gear as soon as possible and light
acceleration defeats that.
