Hello I just
Hello from Greg. I just wanted to let you know about the new car that we got. We got a 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid. It gets much better mileage than the old Trooper. As you can see I am currently getting 46.7 mpg. That is the average over the past 985 miles.

That is much better than the Trooper, which is the primary reason that we got it. Here are some pictures.

It comes with aerodynamic wheels.


It has become an obsession of mine to get the best possible gas mile. Our neighbors got a Prius about the same time as I got my car. I am currently beating her 43 mpg.

LOL. Greg I love that you want the best gas mileage, Dave does the same thing with the Highlander but it doesn't get that good of gas mileage.

HA! Ok...Greg...I'm behind on reading the blog here....so we're in a contest??? LOL! I didn't know! Ok---so now you have to do your gas mileage calculation the "real" way. Take your mileage from the whole tank divide that by how many gallons you put in when you fill up and see what you get. Those darn computers LIE (really) and you can't trust them :) GAME ON!

Ps...my last tank was 47 mpg---I drove a lot more in the city so I think that helps.

PPS---I have a new 15 yr old driver AND a 21 yr old boy driving my car and messing up my mileage---so take that into consideration. HA!!!!!!!!

PPPS---I'm not competitive. Nope...not at ALL!
