Not from the ride, or the comfort, or the drive, or my age, but dropped 33 gallons from Ozark to St. Louis & back...Performed great in the slop & no drama, but 33 gal. x $2.89 = pain....Ask rekut & MM how cheap I am.....
1st long drive & my butt-hole hurts....

16.9mpg was the way it calculated on the return trip. We actually had to go into Ill. to pick up a cr-v for my wife. So it was slightly longer than "St. Louis" metro. I was a great first trip, but after reading all the PHH & HG threads, I was a little hesitant at first.
If it makes you feel better, last two tanks mine averaged 5.7
Are those miles figured up & down or as the crow flies?
BTW mine is a daily driver, I average around 11-12.
lol.... up and down, and corrected for the 38"s!

I am not sure the last time I got 16 miles to a tank. Course the fact I am stuck in low doesnt help any.
16 miles to a tank! Woah!
Hey, if we wanted gas mileage we would be a Mini Truck Club instead of a Land Cruiser Club. All though I did enjoy driving Robert's Mini 4 Runner and Justin's Mini Truck at Gilmer.

When your running 2 mph thats 8 hours driving time.

On the upside, the little rollerskate CR-V we got my wife averaged 27.1. I wouldn't trade the luxury ride of the Cruiser for the fuel economy of that thing, though.

Does that 27 mpg include the 8 hours spent stuck in the ditch?

LOL, she did that herself & had it dug out before I got home. She wasn't hurt, unless you count her ego. Can't wait to get her cr-v up little blue.....
