#104 of 787 low mileage in a new car? by lolsen Mar 06, 2006 (5:19 pm)
I purchased my 2006 Honda CRV EX about a week ago. We took a long trip, mostly highways, and averaged about 20mpg. I had expected better. Should the mileage improve as the car gets broken in?

#108 of 787 MPG for 2000 EX by joeyd2 Mar 18, 2006 (3:02 pm)
I've been tracking mpg using a spread sheet. My 2000 EX was 25.7 for 90,000 miles. It would vary some with each fill up. I would normally fill at about 320 miles. Some time I would forget and have gone 360 miles. I just bought a 2006 SE and hope for similar results. Replies to this message: joeyd2 (Mar 25, 2006 6:52 am)

Replying to: lolsen (Mar 06, 2006 5:19 pm) I sure this is a crv 4+4 problem!My friend has a honda accord and 38mpg(uk) is no problem where as i can only get 26mpg (uk+2ltr) the dealer in Telford (uk) told me to take it on a good run but i then informed him i'd been to the Alp's in France and again in Italy (1450 mile round trip)he was short on follow up's. But to be honest it's one of the few car's you can do 750 miles in a day and still be talking to wife and kid's !

Replying to: joeyd2 (Mar 18, 2006 3:02 pm) I filled the new se at 282 miles. with 11.6 gallons. that is about 24.2 mpg. I hope it gets better. My 2000 has a stick and the se is auto. I noticed with the auto it is very easy to rev 4, 5, even 6K. I suspect this is why there is such a big difference in reported mpg.
#112 of 787 Re: Yes.. 15.3 gallons.. [kyfdx] by saabgirl Mar 26, 2006 (2:15 pm)
Replying to: kyfdx (Feb 23, 2006 5:20 pm) This time I ran until the needle actually began to drop south of the little red line above E, and the passenger seat began to emit a loud noise --"Get gas NOW! Get gas NOW!"   So after 325 miles my 15.3 gallon tank took 12.8 with the pump nozzle on the auto setting. That's 25.4 mpg. So I had 60+ miles to go, not considering the racket in the passenger seat.

Replying to: saabgirl (Mar 26, 2006 2:15 pm) Wow.. you did really well.. I'm usually pretty happy if I can just get to 300 miles..   My passenger seat woke up one night at 2:00 AM, with the amber light on, and the needle below "E"... Next exit with an open gas station was 20 miles away, so I got to listen to it for quite awhile...   I did set a personal record that night.. 5 hrs,40 minutes.. 420 miles... with zero stops.. '99 Honda Accord 4-cylinder..   I've had higher average speeds, but never made it that far, or that amount of time, without stops for gas, food, etc..   regards, kyfdx
