So far I've gotten 19.75 & 19.34 mpg in the city driving I do. I don't expect it to stay that high, considering I'm breaking her in right now, but anything under 15 is unacceptable in my opinion. The EPA states (gosh how many times have I said that on this website) 18/24 but then gives a "possible" range of 15/28 so 13 is below what the EPA observed as the worst fuel economy.
You are not alone...alot of people complain about 13mpg in the city but there are so many possible factors involved that you will have to do alot of homework to figure it out.
Is it your driving style?
Are you constantly in stop and NO GO traffic?
What flash do you have, it might help a bit?
People like philodox, LOL, drive normally in the upper 4K to lower 5K range it seems by his video...LOL, so I expect him to get bad fuel economy.
People like Howard, drive soft...hard, etc and still can't get his car out of the 13mpg range. He has posted like crazy and so have others so again...go do your homework...
