"I've consistently gotten 27 MPG on the HIGHWAY with the RAV (a number I NEVER saw on the Odyssey). "
 
My 2002 Ody got 27 MPG 75 MPH on trips from CA to NM. Sometimes it got 26.5, but it was fairly consistent.

MPG hints and Ody history by charlatains

My 01 Ody has 60K actual miles and still drives like a dream. I've used it for everything and the only problem I've ever had is with the trany. Been replaced by Honda twice, but never broke down - was a factory recall on the trany, but they stood behind it completely. I've had my eye on upgrading to get leather and some other features that weren't available til after '01, but have never been able to justify the new debt because the 01 is such a great car, but the wife wants a newer one so I might make it happen soon. My concern is the real world MPG' which is why I'm here lurking and reading comments. I just returned from a 700 mile round trip and tried to stay at 70 on cruise but find it real hard to do with the traffic on the highway, most of which is going 80 plus - my mileage on the trip was probably around 24-25MPG, which aint bad but with gas prices as they are I want to do better if I can. I am very attracted to the engine management system of the iVETC newer Ody and might go ahead and trade soon if I can find the right deal. Of interest, I heard recently that at speeds over 60MPH every five mile per hour increase in speed costs 15 cents per gallon at $4 per gallon prices. That's surely enough to give one a serious pause about driving much faster than 60 or 65 IMV.

I live in a semi-rural area with 40-50 MPH speed limits and stop signs/lights several miles apart. I can always get 20-26 MPG around here. AC sucks 1 or two. Our interstate speed limit is 75 MPH so I then travel at 75-80 MPH and my gas mileage is 24-26 MPG. I've had 4 ODYs and I've been able to get EPA mileage most all of the time. My '06 with 3/6 cylinder doesn't do any better for me than the other 3 w/o it.

On a trip this summer from MI to MO, my '05 Ody w/ VCM got high of 27.2 mpg and low of 23.3 mpg. Van was driven at 70 mph, w/ AC on, loaded w/ wife, 2 kids, and week's worth of luggage & golf clubs. The low was in hilly area of southern Missouri, 70 mph w/ cruise on. Respect the van! Ditch the SUV!

Hi There,
 
Can anyone suggest a good Remote Starter and it's price and where can I get it.
 
I need it installed, so it will be really helpful to me during winters.
 
I am just looking for a Remote Starter, which can start my Van and I can use it to unlock doors. And ofcourse, I am looking for a cheaper one.
 
Thank you,
Sunil.

This being the Fuel Mileage forum I doubt you'll get too much help. I'd try looking in the Honda Odyssey Accessories forum, by clicking here.

Just purchased a new 2008 EX, the first tank of gas brought back horrible gas mileage even with highway driving. Maybe 14 mpg and we don't ride it hard. Is this normal for a first tank of gas?
