Re: Really poor gas mileage

Burned through a tank of non-ethanol 87 octane. It still had some residual of the previous fuel but I saw an increase of 3 mpg over my last tank to 26. I would like to have done several more tanks and more mileage but locations for buying this fuel make it impractical to get during the work week.

Re: My Red SLS

A lot of Washington's coast is pretty undeveloped and accessible mostly by hiking, not a lot of coastal towns. But where those towns are and the roads meet the beach, you simply drive out! Totally legal. As far as the experience of owning the Kizashi being "dull" compared to the VW, I enjo...

Re: Fuel economy and iAWD - let the fun begin!

I responded to the Poor Mileage Thread about my low MPG, regarding my AWD experience though…I love it. AWD was the number one criteria when I was looking for a new car. Not because I’ll need it a lot where I live, but because I knew it would narrow my search results down (I thought Subaru might be m...

Re: Really poor gas mileage

I can't believe the mileage you guys are getting (I’m mostly talking to you WSHOOTT2)! I average 22-24 mpg, using my own calculations not the car estimator. Sure, it’s still within the claimed mileage, just on the low end. I drive probably 40% HWY, the surface streets I do drive are not city blocks ...
