Replying to: westside (Jun 07, 2005 7:53 pm) That one works. The Toyota V6 doesn't fare too well compared to the competition. I'm really surprised the Nissan V6 got better mileage.
#15 of 930 Inching up to 30 MPG by hank2 Jun 10, 2005 (6:01 pm)
I have a 2004 4Cyl SE Auto with about 15K mi. I drive about 300 miles per week, roughly 30 miles each way at ~ 65 MPH on cruise control. I was getting about 24 MPG when I bought the car new last year, and it has been inching upward to the current 30 MPG.   Based on other postings, I may be able to get 33 - 35 MPG by next year .... However, I don't think I'll get 40 MPG   I have an unproven hypothesis that starting the car has a noticeable effect on mileage. It is not logical or provable. In other words, if I drive 15 miles, pick up some coffee, then drive the other 15 miles ... and I do this everyday. I feel like I get hit for 2 MPG, which seems like a lot ... but, again I can't prove it and don't intend to try to reproduce it. Otherwise, I'm sticking with 30 MPG.   - hank2 Replies to this message: lmacmil (Jun 11, 2005 6:04 am)

Replying to: hank2 (Jun 10, 2005 6:01 pm) "I have an unproven hypothesis that starting the car has a noticeable effect on mileage."   You'll get your best mileage in steady state cruising. It's not the starting per se, it's the slowing down, stopping, speeding up again in the middle of your 30 mile trip that will reduce your mileage vs the 30 mile straight shot. Probably not 2 mpg though.
#17 of 930 SE-V6 update by lmacmil Jul 19, 2005 (7:17 pm)
My son just returned from a 900 mile round trip which was mostly highway driving. I was a little disappointed that the car only averaged 26 mpg. I suspect he drives around 75 mph if traffic permits.   Overall mileage for 3200 miles is now at 23.2. Best guess is that's about 40% highway/60% city.

Replying to: lmacmil (Jul 19, 2005 7:17 pm) I drove my 2004 exl 4 cyl accord on all highway for about 600 miles and got 40-41MPG with two occupants and luggage. Once at my destination, I drove a little city and then back highway home. Overall got 36MPG which is awesome. The tach was slightly higher than the camry 2005 LE I test drove. I really believe the camry will beat the accord (by 5% maybe) in overall mileage. I drove 70-80mph for the highway with the AC on. That reason is why I'm going to buy a LE camry in the next day or two. Replies to this message: lmacmil (Jul 20, 2005 2:57 pm)

Replying to: chevymalibu (Jul 20, 2005 9:42 am) Please tell me you're not going to trade a 2004 Accord for a 2005 Camry just because you think you're going to get better the 36 mpg
