Newbie from the Pacific North West
I'm a newbie from about 30 minutes north of Seattle.
I drive a 1992 red Geo Metro LSi convertbible, 1 owner, with 159k miles on it. We bought it May 1st, 1992. When I was in high school I averaged 26-28 mpg because I drove for such a short distance that the engine didn't get fully warmed up. When I started I college I raised my average mpg about 10+mpg because it is now a 10 mile drive to school.
I own and drive a 2003 Sapphire Blue Pearl Honda Accord coupe EX V6 6MT with Navigation. I'm averaging 28+mpg.
I'm doing pretty well, gained twice the cylinders, one gear, 3 times the displacement, and almost 5 times the power, and I'm only getting about 10 or less mpg with the Accord vs the Metro.
