2006 Accord Hybrid w/o Navi
I just found this site, I bought my 2006 Accord Hybrid w/o Navi on Feb. 15th, so it is one month old today.
I decided on the 2006 because of the spare tire and VSA. I ordered it back in Nov. 2005 and it finally arrived. It was the only one the dealership was sent. After I bought it they told me they could not order anymore. I ended up paying $800.00 over invoice. I look forward to reading all of your comments.
I live in Olathe, Kansas a suburb of Kansas City. My first tank of gas I was able to get around 25.1 mpg doing mostly city driving.

Welcome- 25mpg in the city ain't half bad, especially on a brand new machine! You'll see a significant bump up after 1500-1800 miles, and another after 3500 or so.
I'm at 17000 now and it still keeps inching up (when comparing to the same temperatures last year)- both the car and my technique just keep getting better...but if I venture into a weekend of errand or town driving, I too am down in the mid-high 20s still.

39.5 and 40.1 for the 130 mile trip. I was only driving 65mph though. I am quite pleased so far.

That hwy # sounds about dead-on to what I would expect at 65, on a new engine. Keep up the good numbers- add a few psi to the tires, keep the weight out of the trunk, and coast coast coast- you'll start to get very used to inching those numbers up. Although AC season is not far off for you FL folks... just as we are coming out of cold-engine season here.
