Pics are forthcoming. Just got a new phone. the one below is one of the first I took with it. And it makes me pretty happy - provided the odometer is accurate, and it seems close.
No mods to the vehicle. Pretty much just basic eco-driving stuff - almost all shifts were done about 2200rpm. Was always in 5th gear by 45mph. Coasting where ever possible. Don't think I ever hit 70mph. And almost all of my driving is approaching highway type driving, though usually at 45-60 mph. Think 2 lane country roads, and almost no stop and go rush hour stuff.
Fueleconomy.gov rates the 2001 5 speed Civic at either 33 or 35 highway - I can't figure out where there is a DX/LX/EX split on that site. Assuming my odometer and the fuel pump were both accurate (no reason to believe they weren't at least very close), this works out to 42.8mpg. Better than I got in my 81 Pup (2.2 diesel), and it's much smoother and easier to drive, though it is lacking in style (love the pup
)
