Mileage reports: Automatic transmission (5AT)
haha about the gas price? sad thing is, that's the lowest it's been in about a month. i paid 4.64 about 2 weeks ago.
yea, the AT is nice on the highway. i can cruise at 55 and the tach will be at 2050ish.

First Tank
First fill-up was a couple days ago and it only came to 25MPG but I figure the engine needs to be broken in a bit and I do all city driving
This weekend we are filling up the gas tank again and going on the highway til it runs out and putting a Cruise Control at a steady 65 mph
I'll post again to what the outcome is.

you shouldn't use your cruise control until at least 3000 miles. let the engine break in before you run it at a steady RPM for any length of time.
29.9269 mpg
16XX miles total
266.2 miles traveled since last fillup
avg. 111 city/ 155 highway
A/C on almost the entire time.
**More spirited driving**
If my AT does this well at 16XX I cant wait till I do the first oil change

Edit: Changed old mileage from road trip (didn't realize I went farther on the highway)
