FIT 5MT vs. 5AT - FE city driving

Good morning, all.

Cash-for-clunkers will see my '89 XJ beater (worth 'maybe' $500 to a heavily intoxicated buyer) is going to put its $4,500 credit towards a new Honda FIT sport.

I'd like to keep...

Re: Interesting Fit Voltage observation via SGII

Interesting. When I had my '06 Si it did not exhibit this behaviour, however, our current '08 Ridgeline does. Light electrics use and once it is warmed up it will drop down in the 12s for quite a...

Re: Any Ridgeline owners?

My wife has had the Ridge for about a month and a half now. Averaging about 17.4MPG on Roughly 70% City driving. I added a new SGII to her Ridge a few weeks back and she has become more conscious of...

Re: Local Toyota dealer

Re: RAM 1500 4X4 for a few days

We gave it back last night as our RL was finally done (waiting on a part).

Calculated a final 13.2 MPG at 90% city. Ouch. It was willing to stretch its legs and get decent MPG on the freeway, but...

Re: Would you hypermile?

No.

Imagine for a moment what you would feel like if a few minutes would have saved the person's life and you chose to save gas instead.

RAM 1500 4X4 for a few days

The family utility (Honda Ridgeline) is in for service so the dealer got us hooked up with a rental. For whatever reason, the rental place only had sub-compacts and large trucks on Saturday and we...

You got it, TomMig. That's the correct scenario.

Some impatient person zips along at 50mph all the way to the front of the line in the next lane over, then tries to shove their way into the long...

Re: CleanMPG reviews the 2008 Yamaha XT250

As the owner of many small-displacement bikes over the last 20 years I've always known about the 'huge' MPG these little 250s are capable of, even with a 200+ lb rider like myself.

My current 'trail...

Re: 2008 Civic Fill-Up Max Gallons

I'd be leary of using that gas station again. I owned a '06 Civic Si for a bit over 2 years and ran it well into the 'No bars' zone on several occasions. The most I was ever able to put in the tank...

Any Ridgeline owners?

Did a search on 'Ridgeline' and didn't get much in the way of returns associated with owners. Just curious to see if anyone here owns one.

We picked up a new '08 on clearance (about $9,500 off MSRP...

Re: Members Only - ScanGauge-II w/ X-Gauge just $139.95 shipped!

The $149.95 fund raiser looked too good to pass up. I've already got on 'older' (non upgraded) SGII on my IS350. Just ordered the pre-programmed new one for the Ridgeline.
