3 year old HCH owner
 

Hi,

Found you guys by searching the web with Google. I have been driving my hybrid for 3 years now and always had about 40 - 50 MPG, sometimes over 50. After reading some of the thoughts of the others on this site i have increased my base MPG to about 62. I find this website a great resource for questions and answers.

Now a little about myself:

I am 34 and I live in Southern California. I drive 45 miles one way to work, yes all the way to LA. I own a 2003 Civic Hybrid CVT (EULA). I own a data logger for my car so i can review differant stats over the pierod of my trip. This device is called a CarChip E/X and can hold over 650 hours of data and only costs about $125. was totally worth it. the do have a cheaper version of this avaliable as well for a little less.

Glad to meet this community and share my experiances with all of you.

Welcome!
 

With mileage like that you qualify as a fairly accomplished hyper-miler. I also just joined this site and would be interested to know what tricks were the most beneficial for you.

Welcome to the forum. I've had my HCH for only 4.5 months, and with summer in Texas here, am getting 39-40 mpg with AC running all the time. Looking forward to 2 years from now when I hopefully can get the mileage you are. :shade:
