Re: Poor Gas Mileage
"Grasshopper,
Feeeeeel what the car begs you to dooo.
Slooooowwwww down. Coast. Learn was FAS stands for. Read Tarabell's article.
Your journey is just begining...."
WTF??
Sorry, I hate to use such language but give me a break. If I wanted to coast my vehicle I would be riding a bike. Let me guess, you also smoke weed on the side because its an earthy product.
41/51 posted on the sticker has nothing to do with coasting. Some people here have also used their AC and still getting over 40mpg. I am not asking alot from this car, the tax break is good but I would be getting the same mileage from a normal Civic with normal tires.
I don't care about Hypermilling... or whatever, I am talking about driving the car like a normal car. This is a car after all. Like I said in my first post, I am not flooring it at the green light. I am driving at normal street speeds in the city and about 60/65 on the HWY. This car should get the posted sticker mileage.
As for the other poster, I will check the tire pressure in the morning. Maybe it is tire pressure. The car uses regular gas and I am not putting premium in the tank.
