After 3,798 Miles here is my final shot of the 2013 Nissan Rogue actual gas mileage.
2013 Nissan Rogue Gas Mileage

26.8 MPG I would say is VERY GOOD for an All-Wheel-Drive SUV. What do you think? Is there anyone that would care to share their dash pic so we can see what your getting after so many miles?  I am in a Nissan Frontier for the next few days. I got in last week and the dash was 15.8 and I have already seen a jump to 16.8 mpg  just by driving aware of it and trying to get better gas mileage.  Simple really, Never really stomping on the gas. Leaving a little early so not to feel “rushed”. It should be a couple of days before I get my next new car and can start this all over again.

 I really did enjoy driving the Nissan Rogue. Found it to have plenty of room for even me. ( I am a bit larger at 6′ and not so skinny) We shall see what is in store for my next Nissan in the Gas Mileage Game!

For now…

Thanks for reading!

Ok, to be honest I do not think I am going to hit 30 miles per gallon while I have time to drive the 2013 Nissan Rogue.  Do I think I could.. YES! If 90% of my driving was on the highway I do not see why not.  You have seen my commute to work from my previous post As I drive the Nissan Rogue. (if you had read that) Well, my efforts have seen some fruition!  Here is my latest accomplishment in the world of Nissan Rogue gas mileage..

2013 Nissan Rogue Gas Mileage

At nearly 3,000 miles I have achieved 26.5 Miles Per Gallon in my 2013 Nissan Rogue as of yesterday when I took this picture.

I I did take a trip for lunch today to Steve’s Pizzaria in West Boylston.  Side note- If you have not tried this place.  I do highly recommend it for the over-sized subs.  So yesterday  I drove to work, home, and the gym.  I have decided is it once again that time to try to live a healthier lifestyle.  Even if it is just a little bit.  Every bit counts right?  If you want to hear more about my journey into the gym and trying to eat better in a car dealership either comment on one of our social media accounts or comment on this post.  I have been considering doing that as it may help more than just me.  But I would like to hear form you about that.  Ok, back the original program material.  😉  Below you will find a photo mapping out my trip for lunch.  As you may notice there is some highway involved and I think that is a direct result of what you find directly below.

Trip for lunch to Steves pizza

*** NEWSFLASH!  3,000 miles and….

2013 Nissan Rogue Gas Mileage 26.6

 

So with a short jaunt to grab my BLT and a few others lunch today I climbed to 26.6 Miles Per Gallon in my 2013 Nissan Rogue!

Not sure if you are a fan of our Bertera Nissan Facebook page but I have been posting every so often what I am getting for mileages in my 2013 Nissan Rogue.  A few fans that have gave me their input and I have had a few discussions with lead me to believe that 25.5 was going to be where I would end up for gas mileage.  That was the average I encountered with information I had gathered.  I had put a post out on our Bertera Nissan Google + page but the only response to that was the fan did not play the gas mileage game. I am very interested to find out if any of you play this game.  Do you?  Or do you know someone who mite?  Let me know in the comments!  I would love for any of you to take a picture like this and share it with us.

As always thanks for reading!

And… KEEP SMILING!

Quick Tip – Nissan Battery – Bertera Nissan

Posted by BerteraNissan | Posted in Bertera Nissan, Do It Yourself :), Uncategorized | Posted on 08-08-2013

Tags: , , ,

So something came up on our Bertera Nissan FaceBook Fan Page where a car battery would drain after being left for a period of time.  Now something that is not always recommended but can be a great idea if your Nissan is left unattended for a period of time.  Even if your Nissan is not left for long periods of time the Battery Tender can extend the life of your battery.  What really happens when you turn “off” your car?  Well even those we believe it to be off..  There are still items at work.  Even the smallest items that we may never ever think of like the radio holding your stations do take the smallest amount of energy.  Even you miles on the dash take up a little bit.  Over time these little items that we never think about do add up.  They create what is called a draw.  As they draw power from the battery.  Now over night it is not a big deal. In some cases a couple of days or even more may not cause you any alarm.  You get in and your car starts.  But it could cause a dead battery even if your car is left “Off” for an extended period of time.  I am sure you wonder how long it takes but there is not really a gauge for this. So, if you plan to leave your car for anything over a day/night you might want to look into a Battery Tender.  As I stated before even if not you may as it could extend the life of your battery.  A simple fact is that your car battery does not want to be run down.(discharged)  It wants to have a fairly stable amount of charge.  The more run down it gets and the less of a charge it will end up holding.  And when the battery no longer wants to hold a charge. Well that is when it is time to replace the battery.  By placing a Battery Tender on your Nissan it will aim to keep the battery at a full charge.  That makes for a happy battery. I can not say that this will make your battery last forever because it will not, but it could help prolong its life. As well as not leave you with a dead battery, and car, in the am when we are all rushing out the door.  We can only hope this tip can help a few Nissan owners out!  To help those of  you who do not know what a Battery Tender is here is a photo with a brief description.

Battery Tender

  • Complete 4-step charging program (initialization, bulk charge, absorption mode and float mode) that maintains batteries at full charge without overcharging via its 4-step charging system

You can find this particular Battery Tender on Amazon or request one from our Parts/Service center at Bertera Nissan.

So I head the other day that the

Nissan Rogue Named as Winner of 2013 Edmunds.Com Best Retained Value Award

13-ROGU-CLR-02

Here is a clip I took from the NissanNews.com Press release page.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The 2013 Nissan Rogue has been named an Edmunds.com 2013 Best Retained Value Award Winner, taking top honors for SUVs under $25,000, with a retained value of 48.2 percent residual value after five years. Now in its third year, the Retained Value Awards recognizes brands and new car models that have the highest projected residual values based on their average Edmunds.com True Market Value® (TMV®) price when sold new. if you are looking for other nice cars to buy, you might want to get the just listed 1968 Mustang GT fastback.

Read the complete release on NissanNews.com.

Now My Demo at the moment as you know is the 2013 Nissan Rogue if you have been following my Gas Mileage Game at all. I am averaging 25.6 MPG in the 2013 Nissan Rogue I am driving at the moment with just a wee bit over 1,000 miles. Now I consider that very good as my commute is a whopping 6.7 Miles.

Click for Directions to Bertera Nissan

being a larger guy I still find that I have plenty of room to roam in the 2013 Nissan Rogue. Plenty of room for others as well. Even behind the driver it is not a compact by any means. But very easy to maneuver as well as park. I do not have the Class Exclusive Around View® Monitor in the particular 2013 Nissan Rogue I am driving but it is also available. As I drive the rogue I find it to be very roomy and holds all my stuff quite well.  Large enough to hold what you need equipment wise or people and small enough to be nimble and easy to park.  I am really enjoying my time driving the 2013 Nissan Rogue.  If you would like to ask me about it feel free to contact me here or on any of our Social Networks.

Gas Mileage Game – 2013 Nissan Rogue

Posted by BerteraNissan | Posted in Auto, Bertera Nissan, Just Jereme, Uncategorized | Posted on 13-06-2013

Now maybe your wondering what this Gas Mileage Game is..  It is actually really simple and not as much a game unless you make it one. You play by trying to get the best mileage out of your vehicle and mine happens to be a 2013 Nissan Rogue from Bertera Nissan at the moment. I started this game when I got in the Nissan Rogue and at my first tankful of gas with 375 miles with an average of 23.6 I was feeling pretty good.  2013 Nissan Rogue Gas MileageI was so proud of the MPG, so I posted about it on my Facebook wall. But, I was amazed at the responses on Facebook that said: “easy lead foot,” “way to go Mario!” and more. Mind you, the Window Sticker (Monroney sticker) calls for a combined mileage of 24 and I do not drive the highway to or from work.  (About 7 miles each way.) So, my thoughts were that this was good gas mileage in the 2013 Nissan Rogue!
2013 Nissan Rogue Window StickerSo, my excitement of getting what I thought was good gas mileage was brought to an abrupt end. But that is where the game comes in! Now I am on a mission to better the gas mileage. You might be the type who fills their gas tank when you visit the gas station or the other type like me. I tend to put in $10 here and $20 there occasionally a little more or less. As I type this I see how little sense it makes but I do it anyways. Now with that being said I have what I would consider about 2 tanks down with 659 Miles on the 2013 Nissan Rogue. I would love to be able to ask you what I am at now.. But I will just show you.

2013 Nissan Rogue Gas Mileage

24.7 Miles per gallon is my average as we speak! I am feeling pretty good about it as well. I have heard rumors of people getting north of 27 Mpg in their 2013 Nissan Rogue but have not reached that in mine. I will say that very minimal highway driving was done in this 659 miles and I could see getting more if I had a longer commute and it included mainly highway miles. A majority of mine have just been commuting back and forth to work that whole 7 miles down route 12 in Oxford and the back road into Auburn, MA, that brings me to work at Bertera Nissan.

**NEWFLASH**

So I left work yesterday and drove to the gym in Dudley. Then, I went to a friend’s house in Worcester, MA, to watch the Bruins game. Just that little bit on the highway, and bam look at that average miles per gallon!

2013 Nissan Rogue Gas Mileage25 Miles Per Gallon is my average after a short trip down 395 and 290 from Oxford to Worcester back (and to work this morning). Now that I know I can def. get more.. I am very interested to see what others get for Gas Mileage in their own Nissan Rogues.  So, I am asking you! Leave a comment below,  post a photo to our Bertera Nissan Facebook fan Page, send in a photo to our website, or any way you would like to contact us. We want to know what you get for gas mileage in your Nissan. Do you play the Gas Mileage Game?  If not, think you will try it? Or, are you  a “lead foot” driver and would rather experience the thrill?

Thanks for reading! Looking forward to your input on this one.

Are you the type to modify your car with Nissan Accessories, or is your car just used for transportation only? We see many cars a day in our Nissan Service Department, and our dealer is always mixed between cars that are stock (and daily drivers) to the tricked out customs that almost make the car an amazing character of its own. Some people name their cars.  That could be you.  If it is feel free to comment with your vehicles name. We would love to hear it.  Or, let us know what you have done to your Nissan.  Have photos and want to tell us about your car?  Feel free to post it on our Bertera Nissan Facebook fan page.

We would love to hear your experience and story with your Nissan. Why did you choose Nissan in the first place? Where did you start? Did you buy a New Nissan or did you start with a Pre-Owned Nissan?  When you think about your car is it part of the family, or is it just your ride to work? If you really think about it, you might spend more time with your car or truck than you even realize.   If you haven’t named your car, or done something to “make it yours,” maybe it’s about time you did. Another way to make your car yours is by doing dome tuning for which we recommend to ask your mechanic for the new Stanadyne John Deere injection pump in stock.
