I'm being serious. I've never in my 30 years of life have ever seen a car/van/suv/truck get above 370 miles to a tank on a trip. The hell kinda tank you have in that thing? :shock: I'm baffled quite frankly in amusement. I must see this economical car of epic proportions! Is this just commuting back and forth somewhere? Or is that normal to and from home/work/school/grocery store driving?
Its the stock tank haha 92 dx sedan with the rear seats removed no spare tire. Aftermaket front seats.
And I've been changing my driving style to see how to improve my gas mileage. I actually use 5th gear now,I'm using 93 premium this tank to see if it would help. Also I do a lot of coasting in neutral. Still have my fun but here and there but for the most part I'm driving like a grandma haha.

Oh and this is normal commute driving to work/home/friend house/store and I like to cruise around with the windows down.

I even drive like an a*****e in my mommy car Malibu. :lol:
seriously i am the same way. but u know. as long as i dont have to spend as much time driving gas costs really don;t mean s**t.

the thought of "saving" on gas is just retarded. for the sake of this being a civic forum i'll use the civic and hybrid civic as an example to prove my point.

Civic Lx (lowest model with AC) $18,795 28 CITY 39 HWY 33.5 average
Civic Hybrid Base $24,990 44 CITY 44 HWY
$6200 difference between the models just about. using $4.00 gas on average per year for this calc.

you'd save.. on average per year with the hybrid! just under $440. wow impressive right?
how long would u have to own the hybrid for it to pay itself off over the non hybrid? just about 14 years.

now we dont all drive cars that get 33mpg average do we.

Anfrey drives a older bugeye WRX (around 10k for one of those) which i think averages about 22mpg. if he went out and got a 44mpg car for around 25k it would take him about 11 years to actually benefit from the hybrid. that's at "saving" $1300 a year on gas.

higher gas mpg doesn;t save anything significant. especially if u don't drive that often. wasting so much time worrying about gas mpgs and costs is just a f**king waste of effort. you spend more on food u shiit out a year than u do running your car.

also i've gone completely off the quote and ranted on for too long and wasted my own effort so im going to end this here and hit enter and go take a s**t.

Some creepy f**ker in a riced out EJ seriously followed me from my town to work. (That's 20 miles). I parked my car in the lot across the street and saw his car a couple rows back and he was just sitting in it. So I took my ECU and put it in my purse, and once I left and he couldn't see me he pulled right up next to my car and sat there for a while then left.

f**k that.
