I have a 95 DX 5 speed 1500 SOHC my wife commutes in 90 miles per day at 40-65
MPH, I run Conti touring AS tires 195's on 14 inch rims. The only real mods are
a low restriction air filter and the resonator is removed from the exhaust, the
car has 155k, only 50 k on the motor.. We get 38-43 MPG strictly commuting,
30-35 mixed driving. I've seen the kids driving the finned fart bomb civics, I
suspect the kid has a heavy foot. (hopefully he pays for his own gas!)
BTW we check the gas milage by toping off and driving down to about a quarter
than toping off and taking the number of gallons consumed and devide the miles.
We always use the same gas station.....
