I actually haven't been paying any attention to MPG even though the in-dash menu shows it. I've heard it can take a while for the MPG to really settle (I think the dealership said up to 1000 miles if I recall correctly). I haven't had to fill up the gas tank yet, but each time I do, I plan to write down how many miles I went and how many gallons it took to fill up to see how my mileage stacks up.

One of the main reasons I'm not paying attention to MPG at the moment is the way I'm driving it. To break the engine in, my driving style is all over the place (some spirited driving, some slow and long accelerations through the first 5 gears, random gearing on the short highway trips I have to do, etc.). I feel like focusing on MPG during break in may not be the best idea, but I don't want to take this thread down a spiral of how to break an engine in :P.
