New Aveo owner - doing OK, looking to improve
First post
I bought a 2007 Aveo, demo with 5200 miles on it about 5 weeks ago. New car warrantee and $9500 out the door, I am happy with the car, mpg is right at 35 here in the middle of a Michigan winter. I drive it easy, 55, rpms 2500, all rural highway, seldom traffic, no hills, 26 miles to work. I'm thinking there may be some room for improvement. I have, removed rear and passenger seat as unneeded weight, aired the tires to 44psi, max, blocked the lower air ducting with no effect on temps. It does seem the it could use a 5th gear that would lower the highway rpm without really impacting it's usfullness as a daily work drive. This is this vehicle's only purpose. Any ideas on ways to go with improvements. This seem a good use for my time and might save some too. Thank You
