I just added my first fuel log and it comes out to be 36.41 - better than 32, the norm. Most of the driving has been country, small town and one country highway trip (through Smalltown America) as I call it. Speeds ran between 0-55 mph. Coasting where ever I could made the difference. The Moditudinal Unit is coming around, she may start eco driving the Rio as well.
The difference in annual cost is about 817 bucks at 3.60 a gallon. The fuel prices go up and down as you know, so I had to pick what I thought a good price average would be.
The easiest adjustment I have ever made that paid off, instantly.
