Today I put down a deposit on a 2007 Nissan Versa that is expected at the dealership in 3-4 weeks. I'm wondering if there are any specific break-in techniques or recommendations that can help my new car achieve better fuel economy in the future. Thanks for any and all advice.

Hi Joe:

___I sort of answered this in your introductory thread but take it easy on the drivetrain and press up those tires. Try and stay off Cruise Control and vary engine RPM’s as your manual probably describes … Don’t run her hard and don’t lug her but begin learning the basic techniques we use here just to get ready for when the big numbers are ready to be achieved. Great FE is not a free lunch. It is up to you and your determination to make the difference. Moving from the Ram to the Versa was a huge step and I wish you the best of luck.

___Good Luck
