I played around with bump-starting the other night. It was SUPER easy. Easier than I expected it to be. It'd be even easier to EOC if I had a kill-switch. I'll be perusing the kill-switch threads, because switching the key off and on is awkward and I really don't like the fact that all my instrumentation also dies when the key goes to ACC.

I'm due to fill up tomorrow/tonight, so I'll give an update on my mpg when I do that.

As an aside, I'm still adjusting to driving the Civic, and it's weird to me for the engine to be so quiet. I'm so used to driving my air-cooled VWs, that the Honda feels so sleek and shiny-new to me in comparison. Though the clutches on my VWs were/are smooth as a a dream, while the clutch in the Civic is way touchier.
