so the lastest thing that they told me was that unless i ran fast enough to get in 6th gear i cant expect anything better than 12...... well i found the epa's guidelines for rating the mpg's of a car and it shows about 3 minutes out of 31 minutes that its actually fast enough to be in 6th gear..... more bs...
City: Represents urban driving, in which a vehicle is started with the engine cold and driven in stop-and-go rush hour traffic.Driving Schedule Attributes Test Schedule City Trip Type Low speeds in stop-and-go urban traffic Top Speed 56 mph Average Speed 21.2 mph Max. Acceleration 3.3 mph/sec Simulated Distance 11 mi. Time 31.2 min. Stops 23 Idling time 18% of time Engine Startup* Cold they also showed a graph of the accelerations and braking ect.... I tried my best to simulate as close as possible and got 12.3 mpg..... this is aggrivating!
