Default 2003–2007 V6 fuel economy

What is the average FE in for the 03-07 accords with the 3.0L V6? 6MT is what I am really looking at. EPA rates it at 21 mpg combined which seems low.

21 is what you would get in mostly city driving..

you can achieve nearly 30 (some have claimed more) on the highway.

<---- 6MT

I get about the same around town. It's not heavy traffic, but a lot of stop and go, and we do a lot of short distances (5 miles or less). I average about 23mpg. The manual is probably a little better.

Was talking MPG with a friend who has a 6MT. He said 23 combined with some WOT.

I get about 23-24 combined driving. I have never gone a full tank on the highway, but I will this weekend so I'm curious to see what happens.

The worst I ever got in my 6-6 was 22, all city with an all day visit to the drag strip. I never went on any highway trips long enough to measure a whole tank, but whenever I went to the casino the tank would end up about 25-26 mpg.

My worst is 21 MPG in town only and my best was 34 MPG on 95% highway

Average highway is 28-30 and average mixed is 22-24

All in my V6-6 coupe
