It's not that I don't care about my fuel consumption. It's that I don't bother looking at it - at all!!

I know it has a comparable MPG compared to other cars and that is enough for me. I drive the car how I want and just fill it up when I need to. I can't understand people who covet their MPG. It is as someone one here said - "smiles per mile" are more important :evil: :cool:

.... x 2

Additionally I don't think that the 35 mpg and above are claims which can be proven as accurate anyway.
