I'll be watching the gas mileage, as I did with my old one. My '06 model never got under 21 mpg, and I checked it every time I filled up. The new car has a mpg indicator hooked into the trip meters. I'm going to compare that with the old fashioned way and see what the results are. I expect about the same, maybe a tad less. We'll see... Bob

Replying to: rsholland (Nov 04, 2008 5:54 am) The trip computer on my Sienna is extremely accurate. I stopped calculating manually - there simply was no need. Break-in mileage is usually poor. It will get better, despite the fact that you're staying below 4000rpm. |

Just an update - I have not weighed myself, and I don't think I've dropped many pounds, but... I got a cholesterol test and it was 174, the lowest score I've ever had (past tests were 178-202). So even if I don't win the prize, at least I know my diet has improved my cholesterol level.

Replying to: ateixeira (Nov 05, 2008 12:19 pm) I'm down 12 pounds in the last 7 weeks.. Got my first-ever cholesterol test over the limit... so, obviously I should be able to do something about it with weight loss and/or diet.. Anyway... anyone need any size 38 pants? lol..

| That's great you guys! Good work! | |
I'm off 8 pounds or so, but I'm planning on cheating next week  I have a fire hose inspection (colonoscopy) scheduled for next Wed and the prep will assure me of at least temporarily being down a few quarts.

I have only lost about 5 pounds .... it's been very 'up and down' in my life ... more than usual ... I also had complete blood labs done recently ... the total cholesterol is down 22 points, but still should come down a bit more (still over 200)... HDL is up 3 points, LDL is down 26 points, and the ratio of HDL to LDL is 2.9 (very good)... all the other 'counts' etc. were very good ... |
