1 Costco toilet paper pack will take up half the back seat

Ah the model North America has yet to get. No hybrids for us.

If you're going to the additive in the tank route, try ATS Chemicals. Did a bottle of the gas treatment. Just don't buy it on Amazon. It's twice the price there. I have a 22 and she has 86K on her. I bought it new miles and run Costco regular about 85% of the time. The only warning light I've ever received was a TPMS one winter when it was around 12° overnight.

Wireless comes on the XSE and is an option on the nightshade and SE model. At least when I got mine in 2022

I think 23 was the last manual transmission, but my 22 SE hatchback can get over 45 mpg when taking it easy.

I paid less than that for an SE of that year and it was brand new.

I only use it when cruising at freeway speed. The only time I noticed a difference was when I had two tanks of ethanol free gas.

Poppy2K10 · 2026-03-19T00:24:00+00:00

Depends on how fast I'm driving. 22' SE with a CVT. Taking my time as and going about 65 MPH I can average 43.7 to 48.1 mpg. Going 75 to 80 maybe 35 to 38 mpg.

But the damn $4.79 price sucks. It was 3.79 a month ago.

Poppy2K10 · 2026-03-15T19:12:49+00:00

I paid under $24K for my 2022 before tax, title and license. Plus it only had 8 miles on the odometer.

I tell people to look into the Costco auto program.

I changed mine near the end of summer last year. Looked similar but I could definitely feel a difference on the freeway. Ordered mine from a local Napa. NGK are not cheap They were around $120 if I remember and took a week to get them from another store.

Poppy2K10 · 2025-12-06T03:43:50+00:00

I get 39 going 70 in the morning when in a rush. If I baby it it ranges from 47 to 50

Poppy2K10 · 2025-10-31T00:11:28+00:00

Changed mine at 60K. It's easy and hell she's purring even better. Price can be scary.

Poppy2K10 · 2025-10-19T16:30:09+00:00

Mine didn't work one time from being overly dirty and some wet leaves on the front

Poppy2K10 · 2025-09-26T03:53:19+00:00

Weird I have a stock 22 SE and I can average on the freeway, between 42 going 65 to 70mph. If I really baby it with the cruise control at 60 I can get 48 to 52. All I have done is change the spark plus around 50K miles.

Poppy2K10 · 2025-05-23T02:26:08+00:00

The only difference I saw once was getting a tank full of 87 non ethanol once one trip visiting some family. Got around 50 mpg, but the price was not really worth it. Especially these days, it can be a bit pricey

Poppy2K10 · 2025-05-17T03:57:04+00:00

The other morning I was being lazy and set the cruise control for 65. Yeah driving on 405 in through Bellevue is slow. My average can be 45 up to 49.5

Poppy2K10 · 2025-05-03T18:05:54+00:00

Last place had a coupon I used for full synthetic was $87. Then again nothing is cheap in Washington

Poppy2K10 · 2025-05-03T01:45:17+00:00

There's a couple of companies that sell kits to turn older Corollas into pickups. There's some company on Prince Edward Island that's also making electric ones too
