The first fillup was my usual 50/50 driving around home.
The second fillup was 100% highway on the way down to Nashville. I had the cruise control set at 60 MPH the whole way (speed limit was 65-70). I hardly ever had to touch the gas or brake pedals. I
did not use the air conditioning. I wanted to prove that you can get awesome gas mileage out of a 2nd gen (2009-2010) 2.4L 5-speed auto Vibe! I couldn't believe it when I did the math after filling up
!
Doing a lot of slower and stop-and-go driving around Nashville caused my number to tank (pun intended
!) for the third fillup.
The fourth fillup was again 100% highway, this time setting the cruise control at 65 MPH. Again, hardly ever having to touch the gas or brake pedals and not using the air conditiong.
The fifth and final fillup was 90% highway. Cruise was set at 65 MPH until I got off onto a more "country" road going through small towns where I dropped it down to 60 MPH when I could. Using the gas and brake more, but still never using the air conditioning.
The entire cargo area of my Vibe was pretty filled. Nothing too heavy, but still pretty full nonetheless. I had slightly less weight on the way home after getting rid of some spare parts.
Here are the final numbers for the Nashville trip:
Total miles:
1137.6
Total gallons:
31.521
Avg. MPG:
36.090
