Default Toyota Yaris

Well just got back form the Toyota dealership with an 08 Yaris Sedan. My wife wanted it so i got it for her. Its like driving a go kart. I can admit we just drove it 50 miles and the digital fuel gauge still shows full up. Which is nice considering I have a Dodge Ram 1500 with a 5.7L gas chugging Hemi in it. Thank the lord for motorcycles and high MPG cars! I'm interested to see what we actually get for the mileage. Dealer said it should getbetween 400 and 500 miles a tank, its a 12 gallon tank.

Just wondering if any of you guys are switching over to high MPG cars or hybrids?

I like getting 500 miles a tank on 12 gallons. In the Yarrrrrrrrrrrrris

It comes out about even seeing how my truck gets 13 MPG. ButI dont drive that to much asI ride to work everyday.
