No need to focus on tricks and things like that until you get a little more use to the car. There a quite a few people that get great mileage just driving. There are a few quicks things you can do right away to maximize your MPG - 1. Check tire pressures - most of us are running 42 front and 40 rear (check them when cold) 2. Check oil level - many of us have found that the oil was overfilled - if so, you can have the dealer take some out (check it when the car is warmed up) 3. Don't use the AUTO function of the climate control system - instead manually select A/C if needed and try to keep it as low as possible But bottom-line, just have fun showing off your new car! Mike
