  1. Year: 2006

    Make: Rx400h

    MPG: 30 - 32

    Location: Boston suburban

    Current Temp: 75

    % City Driving: 80

    % Highway Driving: 20

    Average MPH: 30

    Gas Type: 87

    AWD/FWD: AWD

    I get over 30mpg consistently in warm weather, including highway at 55 - 60. In winter, I'm lucky to get 25.

  2. Well, here's my .02:

    Voice response - forget it

    Bluetooth phonebook - random selection of one phone number per person, one at a time? What were they thinking.

    GPS - I find it to be very good in general. Here's how to bypass the "safety" feature (at least in my '06): Menu/Audio. Touch upper left, lower left, upper left, lower left. On the screen that appears, hold "Bypass" until it turns black. Hit Back. Unfortunately, you have to do this every time you turn the car on. However, you can do it while the car is moving!

    Mileage: Local roads I get 30 to 32 in warm weather. Highway I can get over 30 as well setting the speed control to 55 - 60. Having the bar graph on will teach you how to do this.

    Annoyances: that "surge" you occasionally get as you roll to a stop! Rear wiper (but my dealer has replaced this free a couple of times). Front floor mat wearing a hole at 20K (once again - a whole free set from my dealer!)

  3. i got the new samsung a-920 (the blade's cousin) for Sprint. I have not had much trouble with my bluetooth connection. Once in a while, it is a little flaky...but pretty consistent so far...

    What vehicle do you have? I have an RX400H, just got the A920. It is exhibiting all of the problems noted above by LexTacoma - works once in a while, other times it shows as connected but the audio stays on the phone, etc. The Bluetooth connection also seems to go on and off for no apparent reason :wacko:
