mileage question
#31
ok My car just reached 500 miles, I assumed it's passed its break in period or what not, but why is my trip computer still showing I'm only getting 19.4 mpg ?? I mean I drive slow and taking it easy. Why am I getting such sh*tty mileage? I thought I'd at least get 25 or something, but 19? This is basically like owning a jeep! GRah!
For purposes of fuel economy and performance, it varies by the car, but it takes at least 5000 miles in my experience to reach full performance. Go easy until then; your engine will perform better and more efficiently for years. And keep your foot out of a cold engine -- always.
BTW if you have a Speed3, it is NOTHING like any jeep.
