Replying to: will26 (Nov 30, 2007 8:08 am) The dash/door materials and fit/finish is pretty good though. Better than our nearly twice as expensive Odyssey for sure. |

Replying to: sebring95 (Nov 30, 2007 9:06 am) I, for one, do better than EPA in my 4-cyl Accord. My dad, in a car that was mechanically identical (just one year older), always got numbers LOWER than EPA, but drove the car a lot harder. They've basically updated EPA ratings to match a heavier-footed driving style. |

I have been driving some real EPA test style conditions here in central FL for temp and flat terrain and light load....mostly highway and right at 55 mph...I went to the 'E' light on this tnl at 445 miles....what are some other folks getting?? Thanks, Don

Replying to: ruking1 (Dec 05, 2007 7:56 am) Used to run a car till it quit to tell what the gauge read at empty. Then fill till it overran to tell how much gas it really held. I will hasten to add neither is a good idea with todays vehicles and may actually lead to damage. |

Replying to: ruking1 (Dec 06, 2007 11:38 am) Those of you with automatics.....did you know you can start the tranny in 2nd gear? I was monkeying with it the other day when I got stuck in a snow storm (i give it a thumbs down for snow performance btw) and if you shift to 1st and then back upto 2nd it will start in 2nd. I've had other vehicles that did this so I gave it a whirl. Good for starting out in slippery conditions. Sucks my Odyssey won't do that because it has a jumpy pedal.

| I only have 550 miles on my car. I have filled up twice 90 % highway 30 /31 miles per gal.I don't make it a habit to see how low the gas gauge will go.I would like to see those mpg's go a little higher. I saw $2 96 per gallon at Cosco today so I filled up .South FL. | |
