XLJEEP - '99 Wrangler Sahara

CIVIC - '05 Civic EX
90 day: 39.94 mpg (US)
heyyyy from stl mo

Hello! I'm a new member here. From the St. Louis area. I just bought an '05 Civic Ex (5-speed, 2-door, 1.7L 4cyl). This car has amazing fuel economy. I'm coming from a Jeep Wrangler where i got maybe 14-15mpg. The Jeep is staying as my fun weekend car, but the Civic is my daily driver money saving car!

Thats all!

Welcome to EcoModder. There's a lot of potential in just about any Civic 5-speed.

Did you actually do all the math on the fuel saving car? Is it literally paying for itself?
