sorry if this has been brought up, but i've done a search and can't seem to find any info... but on the EX V6, what are you all getting for gas mileage? My g/f is averaging 19, combined... about 50/50 city/highway

tell her not to floor it everywhere.

 

i should use that advice

 

does anyone have any quantitative numbers?

 

I do a 50/50 city/hwy driving and i get anywhere from 28-30 miles with one gallon. That is only when i drive granny style with no flooring what so ever. If i floor it once every few miles, the lowest ive gotten that way was 27. 19 seems ridiculous for an accord. BTW, i have a 02 accord coupe 5-speed.

 

this is from edmunds.com 98 V6 EX 2 door

Fuel Tank Capacity: 17.1 gal.
EPA Mileage Estimates: (City/Highway) ~ Automatic: 21 mpg / 28 mpg

96 V6 EX 4 door

Fuel Tank Capacity: 17 gal.
EPA Mileage Estimates: (City/Highway) ~ Automatic: 19 mpg / 25 mpg
Range in Miles: (City/Highway) ~ Automatic: 323 mi. / 425 mi.

tell her to stop flooring it

I've borrowed my mom's v-6 98 and I have no idea what the actual mileage is but it has to be around 18 or so. IT's terrible compared to my 93 5-speed but then again it is a LOT faster. QUieter too. But at least Honda's aren't like Nissan V-6's they usually require Premium fuel. SO things could be worse.
