Hi you all! I got my civic Hybrid back in august, and really love it, but I am not getting a good mileage yet (36 - 37mpg). Here in Las Vegas you know the heat, and my wife cross the town every day during heavy traffic or getting some freeways along.

Are we doing something wrong? Is this a heavy foot problem or we should be at least over the 40's ? Yes, we use AC but we do not go fast (City speeds, 65 or below on city-limits freeway). There is lots of stop lights and slow traffic. Our baby just hit 6000 miles a few days ago. Does the Civic turns the engine off while going down hill ???


Any advices from you guys masters?

Thanks!

Mauricio
