40mpg hwy and 29 local isn't bad for the new ford fiesta. and given from our own experiences with the Fits, we all know the govt's MPG numbers are usually lower than what we get...as we get higher #'s.

go ford. if they had more cargo room like the fit's, then it would be such a nice car.

Officially Official: 2011 Ford Fiesta rated at 40 mpg highway — Autoblog

 

my car is spot on with the government mpg ratings so far

From my limited experience, it looks like they are spot on for the general consumer. Of course, if you add in hyper miling and mods, then sure, it will vary.

as for ford- I'd never buy another one. I'm happy ford is making a go of it, and I know there are some nice fords on the road for sure. However, I'm not going to give them a chance to fool me a second time. It will take a long time for the name to be restored.

 

my mpg are lower than the ratings. fml.

 

You probably drive hard. :)

 

Fiesta's back seat=weaksauce

 

Fiesta's back seat is like the backseat of coupes where only children can fit. Also the seat don't fold flat.
