Default First Gas Mileage Check

First mileage check was 36.5. This was a combination of approx 70% highway and 30% city. This was for little over a half a tank and 210 miles. I'm happy.

I was driving like a grampa on purpose and will do so for the next tank too. (good for the breakin period too!!).

Indigo xA with white top and white spoiler. Several people thought it was a Mini with that paint scheme.

15" spinners? If you get a NOS sticker and put it on the back of your car not only will you get 5 more HP but your gas will decrease

Sorry about leaving out the details. It's an automatic, stock everything, 15" alloy with the standard Goodyear tires. I inflated them to 32psi (29psi seemed a little low).

Just borrowed a 2004 Echo while cruise and security are added to the xA. Drove more than a hundred miles, 80% Highway at 70mph, car has 1100 miles. MPG was 41!

I'm averaging the same mpg as the day I got it (30 mpg). I have a Scion xA, automatic, 17' allow wheels (the picture is on my profile). It's only 2 1/2 months old and I already have 6,000 miles on it (work reasons). I'm trying to get a sponsor to advertise on my car since I drive SOOO much for work. If you're interested, e-mail me.
