Revised EPA standards

[steensn]

I couldn't find a thread on this, but what is everyone using for their garage cars for EPA? I have the original EPA estimates, but notices some others with the same car using the new estimates based on the new standards. What are everyones thoughts? Is there a standard for this site? obviously is makes everyone % better.

I just talked with Metro about this yeterday. I too was using the old standards. However, we recommend everyone just use the 2008+ because its easy to look up and everyone can get them. To find them go to fueleconomy.gov.

Sweet, that is what I was looking at.

I am using the 2008 EPA ests. for my car. The original EPA estimates were 28/35. The new 2008 ones are 24/32.

I'm using the revised as well. 29 vs original 33 combined. Still doing better than their highest user submitted MPG :-)
