99 AV6 - 22.5mpg - is that about right?
I have a 1999 Accord V6. My AVERAGE mpg over a 6-month period - combined city and highway (probably 80% highway) is 22.5.
Is this about right? I was reading where some of you are getting 28-30?
I don't run the air conditioning much, and my tires are at 32psi. I haven't checked my air filter at all, but after doing some research I am going to change it tonight.
Any thoughts/ideas?
Thanks!
Paul

i run ...
short ram intake
comptech exhaust
stock plugs and wires
89 oct gas
17 in CL-S rims at 32psi
and pull around 24mpg. 22.5 is about right. with my stock rims, i got closer to 28mpg, but the CL-S's are much heavier.

17inch rims
ebay intake
flowmaster muffler
system in the trunk
on a 2001 coupe ex auto 4cyl 19mpg ~300m empty lights on
Friend's 2000 DX sedan fully stock goes well over 400m before empty lights on
SUCKS for some of us!
