So for thoes of you who DD ur CR
and are 1k+ miles what are you seeing as ur MPG?
i was really excited when i first got the CR and was seeing close to 27-29mpg
now that winter has hit ive seen it drop to 20 (not very aggresive driving at all)

Ive already heard thoughts from a few of you but this is out to all the CR DD drivers.
Thanks
Nate
I use mine as a DD. Last tank of gas i got 25 MPG average. Only 45 highway miles. Weather has been below 50 on the entire tank, sometimes freezing. So basically thats all just city driving. I have been driving VERY unaggresive. Every time i start the car i keep it under 2k RPM and i drive fairly slow. I feel like i lost my balls since ive put on the snow tires.

He probably doesn't even OWN a car of any sort, being a pre-pubescent, underachieving, troll and all...

why not paint some pink balloons on your car, too, just to be sure no one messes with it

About the mileage question, CR DD here, 21k miles, and it's right around 24mpg most of the time only rarely VTECing, and 27 or so on long trips.

Still no trouble at all with my CR except the air-leaky hardtop. Also the firm ride does get to you on long trips. But it's all worth it when the roof gets to stay home.

odd i havent had any problems with my hardtop.
Its actualy quiter than expected.

I have read in various posts about OEM and non OEM hardtops that if not put on perfectly there is a seal issues especialy in the rear.
Might try taking a little time the next time you put it on to see if you can line it up perfectly and see if there is a change.
