For anyone complaining about FE in the Fit...

...here's a picture of a scary, scary screen from my "other car". Enjoy.

Oh, for those who will ask... no, that is not photoshopped IN ANY WAY.

Cheers!

I can show you a pic of my Fit's mileage meter saying the same thing.

Useless post.

Put your seatbelt on.

Watching the fuel gauge drop during a 3rd gear pull is fun.

No complains here about mpg... Too many threads complaining about Fit mpg though. Does that count as a complaint?

Old thread is old.

While we're on the old thread though, My mom's V8 Explorer would suck gas so bad you could literally watch the needle move doing 0-100 runs. It was fast for an SUV but holy shit did it eat gas. You could do maybe 8 runs before having to hit up a gas station. lol

My bad. I'm new here and figured that threads on the first page would be somewhat recent... wrong!

And my brother used to have a Durango RT. Crazy feeling watching the speedometer move so smoothly all the way up without slowing down. I took that thing on a 2 hour highway trip. Taking it easy with cruise set at 70... I could watch the gas gauge go down. It was horrible.

Drove my buddy's Cadillac SRX on a road trip last summer... Maybe it's my driving style that's the problem, but on a 350-mile road trip, I averaged barely 10 MPG. Absolutely miserable. 35 gallons of fuel for a 350-mile trip? My Fit can do that with 10 gallons.

Under acceleration I think I've gotten down to 2.4 MPG at a moment in my R32.

FYI, Gimp is free and can let you make the pictures smaller.
