Model Accord: 2004 LX 4 cylinder coupe 5AT

Best MPG: 28 on 70% hwy - no traffic

Average MPG: 24-26

% Highway: 20-30 (no heavy traffic)

% City/bumper-to-bumper hwy: 70-80

my AC is on about 70% of the time

I really need to take a long road trip so I can see how much mileage she's really capable of.

 

[foreman_bob]

31 MPG average. My drive is 5 miles each way to work...in city driving, not too much stop and go, but at least 4 stop lights.

 

[04EXNavi]

Lately it really sucks: 22-23 mpg, 90% in town, at least half of it stop and go, with the a/c on pretty much always.
But my commute is only 20-25 minutes, so it isn't that horrible. Just my mpg.

On the highways, things look up, usually 33-35, with a best of 37.1 on a 150 mile highway trip.

K24/automatic

My best has been 36 mpg on a long highway trip at 55-60 mph or so
with a/c on. Don't know what it is around town.
This thread reminds me I must add 3 lbs to all my tires.

Regular unleaded hit 2.55 here in Columbus Ohio. Until today we've been running between 2.10 and 2.35 the past 3-4 months

Spikes anywhere else?

[04blkpearlcoupe]

Woohoo! I just acheived a new all-time best for my car today. 31.75mpg in 80% highway driving and about 5 miles was up a steep hill. I usually don't get to drive so much open road but today presented the perfect opportunity.
