scion xB? maybe the honda is just more fuel efficient? in the scion i could not get more then 20 mpg. i know it had about 2 gallons smaller then our gas tanks, but it's also a smaller engine as well. can this be true?

do you have a car that is suppose to get better gas mileage then your S?

 

doesnt the xB have a gas rating of 30 something??

 

yes...i have no idea why it is getting less then 20mpg. maybe i got a bad "one". i never floor it or anything. always babied it. doing only 65 the speed limit.

 

What kind of gas mileage did you expect from an underpowered box on wheels? Boxes don't have very good aerodynamics.

I do have a car that is supposed to and does get better gas mileage then the S - a 97 Prelude. It's not significantly better though and definately not as much fun to drive.

 

yeah, what can i expect it's a flying brick. another funny thing is though, i never got any rock chips with it. as with the S i got 4 of them within 2 weeks of ownership!

 

speaking of gas....i just got my S2k about a week ago and its been pretty nice here so ive been driving a lot... anyways does anyone know why the gas light comes on so early i had about a 1/4 tank three bars left and the light came on so i stoped to fill up and it only took around 9 gal..

Maybe its a slush box or maybe the 10,000watt sound system is over working the alternator.

 

That's even worse then how I get 16 mpg with the S2000!!!

 

I havent been able to get a good read on MPG on the S yet....It's too much fun not to drive spiritedly
