Replying to: phd86 (Feb 01, 2006 8:44 pm) That is a lot of effort, but the fact remains that predicting/measuring the mpg of a vehicle by a few posts on the internet cannot be done. There are too many variable in how people drive and how they measure. Look at Consumer reports for actual measured mileage - far more accurate than a typical owner can do. I commend your efforts, certainly was no easy task. However the fact remains that your analysis offers little concrete evidence due to the many inconsistencies in data gathering. I agree with dudleyr that the Consumer Reports test is a more accurate assessment of Camry fuel usage. |

Replying to: falcon2 (Jan 05, 2006 8:13 pm) Look in the transmission section of the forum and see the ES300 transmission problem forum and the Toyota/Lexus transaxle delay fourm http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/WebX/.ef14c39/?ed_displayMakeModelRelatedDiscus- sions!make=CATS&model=Transmission As far as your mileage, the driver variable is very important like Imacmil said in post #72. You may be stepping harder on the gas pedal now that you have a 4 cylinder car to make it accelerate like your prior 6 cylinder car. Your 70% hwy driving doesn't tell me that much. If your are driving 65 mph, your 4 cylinder vehicle should do better in mileage than the 6 cylinder. If you are driving 75mph+, I would expect the two cars to get similar mileage. Also, were you using premium fuel with the Lexus (which can take advantage of that) and regular unleaded with the Camry? That could also make a difference. Hope this helps you in your quest towards feeling satisfied with the car or helping you decide to dump the car.

Replying to: lounger (Feb 06, 2006 6:03 am) If you use fuel with 10% ethanol blended in, you will notice lower fuel economy. I like the way the Europeans report highway mileage since they tell you what the consumption is at 100kmh (62mph) and then at 120kmh (75mph). There is a significant drop at higher speed. |

| seems like im getting about 20 in the winter; not much better than when i had the mustang gt... jeez =/ | |
It has 1650 miles and I have been getting 32-35 miles to the gallon so far. I only drive highways here in Florida and there are hardly any hills. I will soon be driving to New England, hope to see if I still get the same millage up there.
