my stupid Honda

A member had this wrong with his car but this was like on the 2nd generation on the site I need help.


I hate my car it get a constant 30-37 mpg. I think there is something wrong with it so I am going to take it back to honda so I can get it back to the regular running 20 mpg. Also I am pissed that I am at 70k miles and having nothing wrong with my car. There must be something wrong with that so thats something I am going to have honda look at. Also my car looks so much nicer than other cars that are stock on the exterior. I don't get it why couldn't they make them uglier?

Could someone please help?

Lots of people here know how to uglify cars. That's a real easy fix, just head to your local aluminum wing/altezza/ghey body kit dealer. If you're not having problems with your car, just wait. To improve your mileage, don't use any gear above 3 (or 2, if an auto). That should take care of it.

Oh, and run some soapy water into your fuel tank to clean out the fuel system.

Hope no one actually tries this, that would be very sad

If someone does try it, they don't deserve to have a running car anyway.
