ok here's my process as described above ..
1. fill up with chevron 91
2. reset computer
3. drive till it's time to refill
4. fill up with chevron 91
then record down the miles driven and amount of gas refilled

# miles driven
----------------- = miles per gallon
# of gallons filled

i normally get aobut 24mpg .. mixed city & highway .. vtec region once every 2 to 3 days .. am i gettin good gas milage?

Did you fill your car from the same gas pump? I drive mostly highway. I drive kinda fast. So, I get around 27 mpg. If I easy on the gas at around 65-70, I will get around 30 mpg.

I'd say you are average for the people of this site that I have seen post. We have seen several who haven't seen above 20mpg, and several similar to myself who have averaged ~26mpg.

My stats ('05 6MT 7,500mi):
Max: 33.37mpg
Min: 19.03mpg
Avg: 26.26mpg

I am getting the same ranges - 23 to 25 in the City and 27-33 highway. A lot of variables here -- fillup, weather, and what "city" and "highway" is in your corner of the world.

I am finding that the nav system is consistently high by about 1.2 mpg to 1.5 mpg. so the above are actual.

Is your car stock or modify? I got lowest: 24mpg, highest: 37mpg driving at roughly 67 mph, average at 29 mpg, and that because i took the resonator off and add a K&N filter to it.

I can't seem to drive below 80 mph on the highway in my TSX; 65-75mph feels way too slow and quiet. This is why my mixed city/hwy driving averages 25mpg.


Hope I haven't just jixed myself into a speeding ticket.
