My Mom has an SL CVT, mine is an SL 6MT. Obviously, we compare mpg's between the cars. We both drive about the same.... fairly conservatively.
Both cars seem to be averaging around 28-30 mpg, BUT the gas gauge in the CVT seems to "off" from the gauge in my 6MT. While I've been seeing 350-380 miles at around a 1/4 tank left, Mom's car is showing around 280-300. Neither one of us has run our car dry, but we have both had the fuel light come on - mine at about 375 miles (that tank was mostly in town) and her's at around 325 miles. Seems like her gauge is off by a gallon or two.
EV - we'll get a good comparison between our two cars when she gets your form done. Also...... if Mom remembered to give it to him, the other guy I said was going to do the survey is going to Minnesota next week, so his info should be available in a couple of weeks. From what I understand, 1,200 miles ONE WAY, so I'm very anxious to see his mileage figures (SL, CVT).
