My gas mileage has fell considerably. Last tank I got an all-time worst 19mpg highway without beating on it

 

oh damn thats harsh, my highway mileage last time i checked was 25 in winter, it was 28 in summer at the best, but this 11 mpg is killin me, i mean its not a pushrod v-8 so i expected a little more lol, but oh well

 

yup avg 15-18 mpg
i think its the oxygenated winter blend
no idea

 

yea winter mix gasoline

 

i got kinda pissed when my mileage went down. went from 25 to 21 is a no go for me. plus it doesn't help when i drive 400mi a week.

 

isnt 91 octane oxygenated anyways?

 

Ive feel like this year the winter mix has really given the evo a hard time in terms MPG's, mileage has been particularly bad but the car runs well. I barely get 200 miles out of a tank in mixed mostly city driving.

 

my last tank was half city, hwy and some boosting. i got 250

 

in NJ im not sure when they switch but i remember that they run oxygenated blends
i need to find a gas station that doesnt do that
mileage is crap and i barely get 200 miles a tank

 

wow u guys are complaining about going from 25 to 21mpg..... WTF?!?! i never got above 12.5mpg. not once since i bought the Evo

 

I stopped caring about my mpg about 3 months ago. Though I have to tell you man, 7-10 minutes of warm up time is overkill. I autostart my car in the morning when I take my dog out to **** and I'm in the car NO MORE than 5 minutes later, usually less. By then the temp gauge has moved and it's good to go. Granted I don't boost til it's where it belongs, but I can tell you from experience that letting your car warm up that much is KILLING what little "mpg" you can get.

My freinds licence plate frame on his IX SE said it best "Theres more to life than good gas milage"

I get 200 or less to a tank. Do I care? Not really because unlike all the sheep out on the roads in the civics and priuses I enjoy my time behind the wheel. It's more than an A to B for me.

 

mine has gone up..i was getting about 220 miles per a tank now im up to 300

 

it's a proven fact that cars get less mpg in colder weather also in colder weather the turbo gives a lil more boost so ur burning more gas

 

I bought my evo to drive it and enjoy it. Its not an A to B type of car. Does this mean that I am always on boost and beating on it? Hell no! Never boost untill she is fully warmed up and such. But anyway for those of you trying to get the most out of every tank by never going into boost whats the point? Why not just buy a civic? I love every minute behind the wheel of my car. In the end if I only get 210 instead of 250 per tank do I care? No because I bought my car to enjoy it and that is what I do.
