23 MPG first tank

23 MPG with on the first tank with my Sport MT.

I was not lead-footing it, but there were some mitigating circumstances besides the break-in period. My commute is two miles, and the temperature here in Chicago has averaged about zero degrees farenheit in the morning. There were a couple of longer trips on that first tank, but for the most part the car barely had time to warm up before the end of each commute.

I hope these initial conditions aren't harming the long term performance of my new Fit. I let the engine run a minute or two before driving, but I take off before the green "cold" light goes away.
