Re: 21-24mpg!
What kind of trips do you make? This car has good milage on a highway only!
Like for instance my average MPG for two years is around 30 because I drive long way and highway mostly.

Battling it out in NY traffic-still better than my Mark 8's with about the same performance although the MArk would run circles around the HAH in turns. The 8 could do 30-33 on the road at 65mph though.

HAH would do 40 MPG in the same conditions.

Re: 21-24mpg!
My 05 HAH gets me around 32 mpg on the highway. This car is strictly a highway car and only a highway car. I do drive in the city but my mileage goes down really bad. I do drive probably a little faster than I should around 70 mph. I drive around 100 miles to work each day and have'nt been able to get better than 35mpg.
I wish I could just figure out how to make my mileage to go up with the price of gas going back up. I drive strictly on cruise. Would driving without cruise do better or not? I notice something really strange when I fill up and take off on the highway the little mileage guage will show sometime that I'm getting 40+ mpg, Why? This has only happened 2 -3 times and I don't really change my driving habits.

Re: 21-24mpg!
Ok, happy new year and my winter mpgs are still dropping. About 21. something last tank and today about 22.2, 80 L.I. hard stop/go competitive driving.
What does a regular V6 accord do? Less?? My pal's new 4cyl camry is doing 22-23 in similar driving but she's no doubt lighter footed.

Re: 21-24mpg!
Somewhat comforting but why the hell can't these things match my old automatic 97 M3 sedan at 20-22 and driven like a M3?
Yeah, 400# heavier and 27hp more but even so. And the M did everything better than the HAH save for the ride(and why I sold the M-a disc blower).
