| ....if you have the extra cash, get the V6. The gas mileage between the 4 and the 6 is negligible. At least that is what i think i will be doing after reading a lot of these posts. | |

I understand the connection, of course, but since we have a place for the odometer/speedometer issues already, let's take that conversation to the discussion that tallman1 helpfully linked for us and leave this one for specific MPG reporting. Thanks. |

well, haven't posted here in a while... With about 70% hwy and 30% local/city I got 421.8 miles from 13.49 gallons for the last tank which equates to ~31.27 mpg. Car is 06 LX 4 Cyl Auto.  The results: 41.7 mpg, the best ever in my 06 Accord EX-L I4 manual  Question for you tallman: Did you use cruise control for the entire/majority of your trip?? That is amazing!!!

Yes I was really suprised at the size of the new Accord. The Civic is 91 ft3 and the Accord is 106 ft3. That is a huge difference between the two. There really is a gap for a 98 ft3 honda that gets better mpg thant the Accord and has more room than the Civic. For goodness sakes a Crown Vic is 107 ft3 and a Lincoln Town Car is 109. A 98 ft3 Accord would slot right between an E class Mercedes (97) and a BMW 5 Series (99). The TSX is close, but still (91 ft3 - with sunroof so more like 94 or 95 without) expensive, heavy and thirsty. For the sake of recapturing mpg, yet still offering some room, Honda need to fill the gap. I would move down to a Civic if it was just me, but it is a tad small with my 3 boys and does not work if my wife joins the mix.
