Hello all, a quick introduction/hello. I bought a 2012 Cruze Eco MT in July last year and have been loving it so far.
Between my easy commute and my diciplined driving practices I've been able to exceed the EPA combined rating of 33 MPG by quite a bit, currently averaging just over 42 MPG (lifetime) and able to keep that number fairly stable even considering the winter weather here (Ottawa, Ontario Canada).
A site called Ecomodder sounds like a great place for a modded Eco.
Mods are simple so far:
-Increased tire pressures
-Eibach lowering springs
-Upper grille blocked (winter)
-Oil pan heater thermostat removed
Anyway, so far so good, loving the car and looking forward to learning and participating here. I'm a certified car geek, I love everything to do with both power and efficiency. My other car is a 2002 Corvette Z06 with a few tweaks, so I have two cars that are at opposite ends of the fuel economy spectrum and love both of them for their strengths.
