This tank is averaging over 50 so far and I have had single trips that tip over 60mpg. For not having any kind of ev mode it is impressive. I cannot wait until the fuel blend changes again.

I was also reading into add ons and was intrigued by the following;

-I plan on lowering it, reports from other have seen increases in mpg's as high as 5mpg.

-The Mugen sport body kit designed by Honda also improves the mpg's of the car but they are hesitant to include hard numbers. They did show simulated wind tunnel graphics that show how they improve in small areas around the vehicle.

-Can't find a sole making wheel covers, so that may be my first serious mod project ...

About to hand over the reigns to the wife, so say goodbye to the high mpg's ....lol
