Its good to see the first reviewer got better than predicted gas mileage, and the reviewer after that got even better. It is good that the new EPA estimates more closely reflect real life driving conditions, but sometimes they sell the cars a bit short. I've noticed on Edmunds.com their long-term test cars all average almost exactly what the EPA said they should, but their driving involves tons of Los Angeles stop and go city driving and performance testing, so that mileage is probably lower than what most people will see.
