New Car! 2012 Fiat 500

Hi y'all, just bought a new toy to mod and play with, a Fiat 500 Pop.

Right now I wouldn't care care what the mpg is because I am intoxicated by that new car smell... it's been over a decade since I bought a new car and wow I almost forgot how great a smell that is

But, even though I am intoxicated, I did take Blanco for his first eco run on the same 92 mile loop I've used on my other cars. Blanco got 44.5 mpg.

So far all I have done is up the tire pressure from 30psi to 38psi, remove the plastic hubcaps, and ditch the under seat onboard air compressor (no spare tire on this one - it's optional lol) for a 10 lb weight savings.
