Archived from groups: alt>autos>honda (more info?)

I recently purchased 96 Accord EX Sedan with 4 Speed Automatic
transmission with 136,500 miles on it. I use this car for daily commuting
and the estimated city mileage is about 19.5 MPG.
I was expecting higher gas mileage than this.

Is it normal, or is there anything wrong with my Accord?

Thanks in advance!

Our '96 LX 4-cyl 5-spd averages close to 32, and my new '06 EX-V6 is getting
30+ !!!

i get around 28 mpg mainly hwy 99 accord 4cyl
150K miles.... I commute about 120 miles a day and it seems
to get about the same milage on the hwy if I drive 75 or 85...so
guess what my choice is Smile

I don't think 19.5 is to far off on city driving fo this car

I'd says 19 is VERY LOW! I've got exactly the same car (96 Accord EX Automatic car) that has just over 300,000 miles on it and I'm averaging 28-29, but it depends on how much I do on highway vs in town, but usually it's a good mix of both, if it's pure highway it's closer to 32! Very Happy


Love the honda's - a 96 with over 300k and still runs like when I bought it (in 98 )!
