Same here for my 97 EX. My average is usually around 31-33, though.

2000 Civic HX.....45 mpg.....followed a Big rig at 55mph the whole way.

97 EX = 31 mpg at 85-90 mph on freeway. Sometimes even 110+

Got bored on my long commute.

Now, 24 in the City. Still in the EX.

I don't understand how any of you guys can get 32mpg. When my 97 CX was completely stock, I normally get 300 per tank. 320 per tank if I drive like a grandma. Thus, you guys probably drive like grandmas.

My B20vtec currently gets about 220-250 per tank.

I usually fill up around 270 miles, which is around 8.5 gallons for my tank. Do the math----270/8.5=31.76. That's about 40/60 city/freeway, averaging around 70-75 mph on the freeway and around 45 on the street.

11-13 is not bad for a fairly fast car getting on it a lot. If you think 11-13 is bad, i'm going nuts with my car right now. I went through a full 16 gallon cell of gas in about 60 miles of driving today in my mustang I turbos!
