For only city driving, 19mpg is great, considering it isn't rated more than 17 mpg (16 mpg if you have an LX or EX).

Not too much wind noise. I don't think we are getting as good as mileage as you but we have a lot of short trips, not sure what your trips are but ours are pretty much 4-5 miles each way. I think that reduces your mpg.

It does, absolutely. Your car uses extra fuel trying to get to optimum operating temperature (getting "warmed up, in other words"). That'll drop mileage by a noticeable margin.

Has you mileage improved? We bought our second Ody (2008 EX-L) and the gas mileage is absolutely worse than our '02 EX-L. The last two tanks I got 14.4 and 16.7 in city driving. My worst EVER on the '02 was 18.8.
I ook mine in to Honda and they claimed to get 19.6. They must have been coasting down a 30 mile hill...... This is my only gripe w/ the Ody.

It is not great but probably close to what they say we should get. I think we are getting about 15 mpg.

"Full" tank from dealer. Got 24+ MPG at first fill up. Drive a lot of semi-rural roads with 35-55 MPH limits and a few stop signs and traffic lights. Will see how the 2nd tank goes.
