Honda CR-V owners - a question
how is the gas mileage?
I know you get more MPG than what the sticker says.... just curious how you feel about your MPG.
TY!

the MPG for the '08 CR-V is 20 mpg in the city and 27 MPG on the highway. my DH says mfg's alway under-estimate the MPG and it's been my experience that is true. my v-6 gets 30 MPG on the hwy, the sticker said 27.

Re: Honda CR-V owners - a question
We get an average of 30 highway, 23-25 city.
ETA - My experience with other cars is that the estimated MPG is always an over-estimate. Luckily, with the CR-V, my experience is that we do better than what the sticker says. We have an '07.

We get better gas mileage than my parents' Mecury Cougars. 
Remember, the CR-V is NOT a V-6 engine...

I am just trying to make a good choice if I do decide to get a new car soon. I can't even imagine what gas prices will be this summer

Re: Honda CR-V owners - a question
i think the gas mileage is great - it was better than our other car which was an 02 nissan maxima SE. it's about the same as our other current car - rav-4.

Re: Honda CR-V owners - a question
I rarely need to drive on the highways. The majority of my driving is on the local roads, and I get 20 mpg

Re: Honda CR-V owners - a question
I will tell you my TRUE mileage not the sitcker.
I have the 4WD (it consums more gas than the 2WD).
I do mostly city driving. Lost of stop and go, stop lights, etc...
I usually do 19 to 20 miles per gallon.
It's much better when I do highway.
