Seems to me that there's surely an FAQ out there for owners to fine tune their use patterns and driving style to increase the hybrid's mileage.
I find it odd that there's no direct input for drivers to influence the car's behavior, eg:
- resume the econ-stall, after you're obliged to inch forward in sto-&-go traffic.
- initiate the econ setting, even though the car is cold (driver is willing to wait for heat).
- different setting for the auto-thermistatic heat for windows open and closed.
- get the A/C *not* to turn on after the defroster has been turned off.
Any tips out there?
Thanks,
