Re: 41 mpg~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you have a high lilacs car you MIGHT want to change out your o2 sensor. Also having a good air filter and some fresh oil helps.
But if you are getting 33.3mpg just be happy. Just use the money that you would have spent on the "gas saving mods" toward pouring gas. That's the best way and more cost efficient.
Now if you were getting 27mpg like the previous guy, then I'd start considerig taking a look into the matter

My best friend has a 2003 LX auto civic, and he swears he doesn't have a lead foot. He only gets like 28 mpg if he is lucky.
I borrowed it for a week when just to proved he had a lead foot and managed to get 35mpg on it.
Re: 41 mpg~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My gas mileage has drastically shot back up now that summer blend gas is back. I haven't filled my tank completely as gas is getting kinda pricey. When I come back from vacation, I gotta get some new tires. I'm gonna fill up and record what I get.
Re: 41 mpg~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I average 34-36MPG doing highway driving always filling up at the same gas station... That being said I know I have a lead foot.
I always calculate my mileage every tank, I guess I should start writing them down.

Re: 41 mpg~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol just keep track of it on my phone.
here is what my average for this year so far.
as you can see, my car isnt driven too much. i do most my commuting on my bike.
Re: 41 mpg~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, I'm telling ya as long as you don't go over about 4000rpm you'll still get over 30mpg. You can get over 35mpg if you don't go over 3000rpm. That's with a 2001 EX manual with 192K that always has my cooler, golf bag, and toolbox in the trunk.
Re: 41 mpg~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hear ya lazlong... I drive fast.. I mean I rev damn near 4k on the highway with 2 subs, toolbox, spare tire, hydraulic jack, and 2 jackstands in the back and I get damn good mileage still... 05 EX with 110k miles
