The Festiva
I've just been lurking for awhile. I just updated my gas log. The Festiva is doing quite well. In 4500 miles I've had no problems and averaged 48.09 mpg.
My best tank has been 53.78 mpg and my worst (this past week) was 44.69 mpg. The car is saving me over a $100 a month in gas (it'll pay for itself in less than a year)! Cold weather definitely kills my mileage, but over 44 mpg isn't to shabby for winter gas, cold weather and relatively little effort as far as driving technique to save gas. I'm going to try and make a coroplast grille block over the holidays as it takes it forever to warm up on cold days. A block heater would be nice too (Santa are you listening?).........
