2003 EX coupe auto
45k
regular 87 octane
mostly highway, I drive kinda fast but not a hard accelerator - 80'ish mph avg. almost always use a/c
get about 330 until the low fuel light on most fuels, get 340-360 on bp fuel. If it's 100% highway I expect 360 out of it.
Stock everything mechanical.
Oil changed at dealer, whatever stock oil type is.

Some of you guys get really good mileage! Dang.. my car has been well maintained, and I'm the only owner.. it's clean, nicely driven, always changed oil.. wonder why I am not getting the milage of the others. Must be the occasional road rage/more aggressive driving style? I am jelous of these 03's getting over 400 miles on one tank.. I don't even dream of that, 360 makes my day a happy one! hehe

the only way to get hi mileage is with constant freeway driving, not alot of accessories on, using cruise, around 65mph or 55. In the city, I only get around 20-24mpg.

I wish I could say I get nice mileage on the freeway, but I dont. 30 MPG is the most I am getting right now, and that is with highway driving.

try some fp60, it gave me 4mpg extra after a month or so.

I was going to order some, but I am tight on money right now so I have to hold off. I need to get a job fast though cause gas prices are supposed to rise again next week. Fuk I cant imagine paying around $3 for gas. it is almost costing me $30 to fill up.

fill up 4 gallons at a time if you can. Better mileage with 50lbs less weight.

2005 EX SE 5 SPD Manual

33-34 for entire 8,000 miles that are on it mostly 50-50 driving.

5w-20 Mobil 1 after breakin period.

Doesn't seem to matter what I do I always get the same mileage.

I haven't been on any long trips to see what it will get on all highway but I would hope it would get closer to 40.
