My brother's 93' civic fuel economy.

[lyssword]

My brother filled up his 93 civic hatch (1.5liter) with $15 of gas @3.18 (now up to 3.25 ) which is ~4.7 gallons. His fuel gauge dipped to approximately same point as before filling gas up, and odometer reads 202 miles I was there when he pushed the button after filling up. That's about 42 miles per gallon

He drives conservatively (no sudden acceleration) with manual transmission. Our city's traffic not too bad (only slightly bad at 4-6pm), and he sometimes takes freeway to travel from one side of city to another.

Just thought I'd let you know

I get 7, so I cancel him out. I have been trying to reduce my fuel economy so I can cancel out more civics.

Yeah, there's gotta be 2 sides to each story, right? (lol being politically correct here )

Hey! no one, no one posts blank responses to my topics! (except for the 3 guys here, they posted blank responses, so make that 3/1000 people post blank responses to my topics)

That's the most useless method of measuring mpg I have ever heard of.

I am more environmentally conscious that Al Gore.....Can I buy carbon credits from him?

100MPG on my Honda Scooter

I get 40-43 mpg on my Saturn if I drive carefully, about 38 if I don't... having a small, manual transmission car is sweet

You do understand the downside to that though? When a soccer mom goes to answer her phone and smashes into a 93 honda civic with MAYBE 2 front air bags its like almost instant death.

I take comfort in knowing my I4 Camry while not getting the absolute best mileage is a lot safer than some older cars.
