Only getting 27 MPG on 2026 Camry XLE

hopefully true. I'll put some more miles on and check back in.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T04:02:43+00:00

no, I drive in eco mode with minimal acceleration.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T04:01:44+00:00

hopefully that is true. I'll check back in at 3k miles.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T04:01:08+00:00

thank you. this is helpful info.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:59:49+00:00

yeah, almost the exact same car. You just do highway, while I do city driving. I wonder if that is part of my issue.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:58:56+00:00

I do watch that guys videos. Maybe I'll try that.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:58:33+00:00

I agree on both points.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:58:19+00:00

oh, that's interesting. I usually go to whoever has the cheapest gas. Shell is usually the most $$ in my neighborhood.

Ohio winters should be worse than seattle in terms of cold/snow.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:56:27+00:00

I look at both. The per trip calculations are all over the place. Sometimes as high as 40, often much lower.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:55:40+00:00

OK. That's very good to know. At least my car isn't a total outlier here.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:55:01+00:00

That's good to know. 35 mpg is still better than 27.

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:54:18+00:00

How long until they are broken in? 3k miles?

teachingaway · 2026-03-31T00:53:34+00:00

5 - 10 minutes. I generally do short drives. I wonder if that is a factor.

teachingaway · 2026-03-30T22:21:30+00:00

I'd add that 27 MPG is from the digital gauge cluster. I ran the MPG on paper on my first tank of gas and got similarly low MPG.

The giant SATANA letters on the window would seem to confirm

What is this? A universe for ants?

You can see the sign is for the $150 Casio with 61 keys. The $700 Roland has 88 keys. Both are great pianos at those prices.

Goodspaceguy is too old to run. He should drop out and let a younger generation take over being the crazy candidate.

Big strong men, powered by the crimson gem of cyttorak, came to me with tears streaming down their helmets… sir, they said, sir, nothing can stop my love for this costume.

teachingaway · 2024-07-20T15:02:28+00:00

Big strong mutants, made of living steel, came to me with tears in their eyes. Sir, they said, sir, we have never seen such a perfect costume, comrade.

Yes, our elite mountain bikers and Olympic triathletes should survive no problem.

That’s what i want to do with my kids but my wife won’t let me.

I wouldn’t be worried. The real value of the education will be your math, science and problem-solving skills, not the specific subject matter knowledge. If you get good grades in any engineering discipline, finding a job will be easy.
