[QUOTE="2010BlkGraniteNox, post: 6430, member: 11"] The problem is the PUBLIC has no clue how the EPA standards are set...If you would actually read up on it, Runs PURE gas (gas w/ ethanol will get less mpg) Max speed 60mph Speed is brought up on a DYNO (so no wind resistance/no hills) Speed is brought up by test drivers at a regulated pace No A/C for 2/3's of the test I can get 27mpg average on my I4 Nox.....Anything above 60 and the MPG takes a huge nose dive If you want better numbers...Simply slow down! And btw...putting "eco" on while at cruise really defeats the purpose of Eco...Its designed for around town, not at cruise, as it offers NO benefit when you have cruise set other then when you go to pass someone, its a tranny shift map and TC lock-up change. Use ECO around town. These are great little setups for getting good mpg around town.... [/QUOTE]
