My last tank was 22.4mpg. One more fillup and the car isn't mine anymore.

But I can report later how much I'll get with the Accord I'll be picking up sometime next week.

I'm getting 23-24 most tanks now, with some mixed highway/town driving, and really mixed driving styles

Alright...my last...I mean the car is gone last tank of gas went 20.43mpg.

Look on the bright side, I'm totally looking forward to mid 20's to 30's mpg with the new Accord.

I've had low of 17MPG in the winter and high of 22MPG in the summer with some highway mixed in. I normally get around 20MPG. Also I'm pretty agressive with my driving so I'm sure I could get closer to 25 if I tried hard enough.
