I let my friend drive it after I had had it less than two weeks...I even let him do a wide open throttle in D to 60...before I ever did.
edit for the wife hasn't driven it yet but it would be no problem...
Three tanks and 1111 miles and my average is 22.04 rural driving with some town and no more than 20 miles total on interstate... I started at 15 miles so breaking it in and winter...So far happy with results. 2.5 mpg better than my Canyon on the same track and habits...
washed it...filled it up with gas...3rd tank and added a nite light to the rear 110 plug in..
had a 72 degree day after two days of rain...looks like rain all week now so were paying for the one beautiful day.
Found two blems in paint as well but will live with both of them cause very minor...
I bought a two pack from wally world today...3.99 Very low profile and worked like a charm...and one left over to use in the house.
I remembered to push stupid the button at startup once... in more than three weeks lol...ONCE. The other 100 times I remembered when it went dead..:crazy: Now...
Tank number 3, 382 miles, 17.17 gallons for mpg of 22.19. Three tank tally is 22.03/21.90/22.19. My display said 23.5.
My average using actual is 22.04. My driving is rural with some city...no more than 10 miles interstate...

I think I read here that someone has it, but didn't give much details. He probably hasn't had time with it to compile anything yet? I could have been dreaming lol...I am old. ;)

Fueled up for the second tank today...367 miles and 21.90. Computer said 22.8.
Tank one was 22.03 so very close. It was colder and a few shorter trips on tank 2. I'm over 700 miles now. Rounds out to 22 for the first 715 miles with computer error about 1mpg..
Today it was back to the dealer for the chrome steps that had to be ordered for my truck....and two minor warranty claims, one was fixed and the other had to be ordered. (over head console)
