LOL I finally broke into the 500miles with my civic vx
I've had my civic vx for about 1 1/2 years now and i've finally got 500 plus miles from a single tank of gas LOL. My vx came with some crappy 185/70/13tires so I finally bought some Sumitomo 165/70/13 for it. Man these Sumitomo can roll forever compare to the heavy 185/70/13. My vx feel so light now it picks up speed very easily. I'm sure it probably stay in lean burn more now also. My previous tank was 514miles with 9.5 gallons = 54mpg. The first click was at 8.2 and I squeezed another 1.3 gallon in there. There was still a little bit left in the tank, i'm sure I could have went another 20-30miles. Anyway i'm just happy that I finally broke into the 500miles with my vx, my prior best was 471miles.

Have you been adjusting your odometer reading for the tire size difference with both sizes? |

It took me a year or so of ownership before I got my first 500-mile tank out of my VX. Nicely done.

Topping off like that is very inaccurate, unless you're saying you always put in exactly 1 gallon after the first time it clicks off.
It's also generally not good for your evaporative emissions system. |

You VX owners need to try for a metric kilotank next. If I can do it in my boxy Scion xB, surely you can match me with your fuel sippers ;). 621.6 miles on 10.563 gals = 58.84 mpg.
