Situational driving definitely affects mileage. For example, my 1977 Honda Civic CVCC wagon that normally did well over 30MPG once did 8MPG. Of course, I was carrying 10 people in it at the time. Oh for the days when we didn't know better....

Visit my Owner's Journal where I wax philosophic on all things FR-S
