    yeah that's what i figure they would say, so what is the point of the going to the dealers? It almost seems like a car is a burden to the dealers, when you buy it, it's off their hands. They don't want to fix it. You call them and all they say is :bring it in, let us look at it" and then when the car goes in, the car is fine!

    I have an auto and when I keep my rpm's below 3k I save on gas.....but living in Cali. I have to step on it a little more..............or I will never get on the freeway like that, but norm for me is about 20-22 mpg mostly city driving.(150-170 miles a day) I'm @ 49k right now :)
