Then again, I have to turn the AC up a lot since it is topping 100 degrees here. That must contribute to that low mileage.

IIRC, aren't you in HS, or just graduated? You have a G35?

He also lives in San Marino, which should be another clue with the high priced houses.

Don't forget that Amol is the one with neighbors that can afford a Maybach.

I get just over 27 MPG on my Civic and I'm not liking it, especially since I stayed under 3000RPM....I wonder if that is normal

I don't think it is...when I control myself I can get ~37mpg or more in my 99 civic ex. I usually shift between 3k-4k rpm's though so these days i'm only getting 32mpg..

 

[BEL6772]

My '93 Civic DX with 215K miles on it is still averaging 37 MPG. Highest I ever got with it was 41 MPG back in the day

50MPG with my Civic Hybrid

Nah, I'm only getting 16.5 around town and then 24-26 on the highway. Our cars just don't like city driving.

Ahhh gotcha. I havn't done much highway driving as the driving I've done has been to go to school, work, volunteering places, and friends' places. Only freeway driving I did was to drop off my mother at the airport, and on that trip, I got 25.9 mpg.

 

[MiranoPoncho]

My little black sc400 gets 24-26 combined, but on premium..

 

[FrustratedUser]

I do 9 gals a mile in the bangbus.

 

[danzigrules]

34.9 mpg in a 95 neon, 2.0 stick

I don't shift to 4th gear until 50 MPH

no, a/c would not impact epa ratings. The temp may a bit though....but a heavy foot and/or late shifting is the culprit probably.

what are you stupid? of course it would. Do you think he pulls that energy out of his as$?

My best cruising usually 100mph+ on trips as been 23-24ish.

There must be something wrong with your car, unless of course you have done an engine swap.

In our 95 240SX (identical to yours -- if yours is stock), we used to get about ~25-30mpg. I was quite impressed with its frugality actually.

 

[Pacfanweb]

Wow, my 99 Tahoe with 100k miles does better than that.

 

[topslop1]

I think my mercury wagon gets about 30 but the way I drive it probably 8.2
