#553 of 558 Re: 60 mpg camry is a load of crap [gmyatko] by cdn_tch Oct 28, 2009 (6:41 am)
Replying to: gmyatko (Oct 28, 2009 6:21 am) The person didn't say it was a tank average. They would have to clarify.   I've done a 47.3mpg tank which was a single round trip over 700 miles, but my best single drive was a 217mpg average over about a 40 minute drive. We were in the Black Hills and did the Needles Highway. It is mostly down hill and fairly slow going... Replies to this message: stalnaker (Oct 28, 2009 7:31 am) cdn_tch (Oct 28, 2009 10:09 am)

Replying to: cdn_tch (Oct 28, 2009 6:41 am) How did you calculate that given the max it will show on the navigation screen is 99.9 mpg? Replies to this message: cdn_tch (Oct 28, 2009 10:09 am)

It ends up showing a bit lower mpg than actual because of a bug in the firmware which shows that the car is consuming some fuel in EV mode.

60 mpg is not a load of crap, at least not according to my TCH's trip computer.   Just to clarify, this mileage figure occurred a one point during a return trip home on I-80 from the Sierra Mountains. If you have a Nav system, like I do, the mileage calculations appear as-you-drive in real-time. My other mileage figures of 38-40 are per trip, not per tank. I hope this clears things up.   My original point was that TCH owners who were getting unsatisfactorily low mpg readings, and could not figure out why, probably did not have their Economy function activated.   Cheers!

Replying to: greenut (Oct 28, 2009 9:00 pm) The ECO button is only for the A/C. It will run it less and the CPU will tolerate a bigger temp fluctuation. Outside of that it will not do anything for your mileage per se.

Replying to: texases (Oct 27, 2009 2:43 pm) I paid $500 over invoice. So after tax, title, and other fees it came out to 33k and some change, about what the sticker was. So without the Costco pricing I would have been paying way over sticker when all was said and done. Plus the Costco pricing is an easy take it or leave deal. You sit down, they show you the price, you say yes or no, and that's it. Very simple and relaxed.
