    Do you only have one green "ECO" light? I have three of them, the more economic I drive, the more light up. The lower light is red and lights up while accelerating more than about 25 %. Beside that, there are some other differences, too.

    Yesterday evening I drove 50 kilometers more with my girlfriend and lights switched on. To hold the average fuel consumption under 3.4 l/100 km I had to drive slower than 70 kph most time, but that are still amazing numbers.

    Could've gone another 100 miles if I wanted to push it. There was almost 1.5 gallons left in the tank and I know that's enough for that.

    One other thing earlier in this tank.

    At 121 miles into the tank the range estimate showed 700 miles left. Haven't seen past 680 on the range screen before.

    Yes we only get one ECO light around here. I don't know if more would really help or not but that is sure a nicer setup

    I already have the mileage doubler reaar alignment forced in-spec holding device installed on my car. (a steel cable).

    Yes mine is horribly out of whack without it. I will wait until I get a chance to align one more mirage, I know the rear will be out of specs,(because I have not seen otherwise out of about 14 mirage alignments) take a pic of the printout then I will go to the rear wheel misaligned thread and open up on Mitsubishi. THEY ARE WATCHING THE THREAD!!! I have confirmation on that!

    I don't want to get too fired up over it here so I'll leave it at that.

    Is the '15 Mirage included for the alignment issue ? We test drove one earlier. Took it for 25 miles or possibly 30 at the most . Was told the '16 sedan should arrive in the fall . Hope that's true . The itch for a Mirage is giving me a Infrared rash . Here's what the '13 base FIT w/ a 5 speed auto got . 39.349 m.p.g. ( 359.8 mis. / 9.144 gals. ) . Not 50+ , but it'll make do for now .
