New Yaris 3dr 5spd...

Well I asked for help on choosing a car in an earlier post and I got some...
I ended up buying a 3dr Yaris 5spd base model.

After two tanks, I can say the 41.7 & 41.5 mpg isn't a fluke... My commute isriving 55-60 mph on rolling hills on 2/4 lane country highways for 35 miles of my commute about 17 miles of intown 35-45 mph roads and 28 stoplights...

This is bonestock driving pretty normal, just a lil (DFCO) Decelerating Fuel Cut off and timing lights... Nothing radical... Tires are at stock 32 psi... I should be receiving some aero hubcaps this week and will bump up the tires to 40psi front/36rear and see what I get then...

Maybe when the tax check comes in I'll get a SGII and get serious about hyper miling...
