While my DD was in the shop, I had to DD the S2K for a week and a half. For fun (or for no fun), I decided to see how high I could get my mpg. My commute is all city, 25 minutes each way. I managed to get 26 mpg. No, I didn't mis-type that. It's what I got. Granted it was no fun at all, and I might as well have treated it like a Civic. In case you're curious, all highway, I've only managed 28.4 mpg. So if you want good mpgs, it's possible, but you might as well by a Civic/Corolla :happy0180:
No highway? I never got under 28mpg's, ever in the five years I owned my S. Even when I had 4.77 gears I was still around 28 avg.
