For the past 6-8 weeks I’ve been getting around 10-20% worse gas mileage in all three of my vehicles. I drive to Cleveland a lot for work and I usually get 36-38 in my Civic. In the summer I can get close to 40 if I drive 70. The best I have gotten in this car has been 32, and that was driving 68-70mph the whole way. Dry, clean roads and the temp has been warm lately. My wife’s CR-V usually gets 28-29, and that is also down about 20%, getting 23-25 now. Drove it to Rochester and back this weekend and barely got 25 all highway driving. Also my Grand Cherokee has gone from 17 to 14. Tire pressure is good, and all the cars are maintained properly. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed a big difference in their car. ---

My MPG’s have slowly been going up… Its not a widespread issue with fuel or something like that. ---

My car has a bad 02 sensor so I can’t really give an accurate answer. My girlfriend has said that she’s been getting bad mileage in her avenger but I can’t confirm nor deny. ---

RoadTrip. Theres a free version with basic functionality, this one is a few bucks. Good for keeping track of oil changes and whatnot, MPG graphs are always neat. ---

Check your tire pressures? Maybe lost some psi with the constantly changing weather patterns but who knows. ---
