tankinbeans @tankinbeans (66) • United States 2 Feb 07

I recently had my timing belt in my Accord replaced, cost $715 and was informed that the sparks plugs were incorrect. My gas mileage has been less than average, does anyone think this could be a contributing factor. Thank you for...

tankinbeans I have looked around and figured out the 10 ltrs per 30 km is excessive. If you want to find out an approximation of what your car should be getting there is a website based in the U.S.A., it is www.fueleconomy.gov, where you can enter as a guest and see about...

tankinbeans I have been accustomed to keeping track of my mileage since I started driving. It's kind of a compulsion. Anyway I noticed that during the really hot part of the summer when the a/c was hot pretty much constantly my mileage wasn't really all that much lower...

tankinbeans I also prefer Hondas because I too have a 95 Accord. I have always thought Hondas looked better, but never liked the civic until the most recent model. Part of the reason I like the Accord is that it's relatively non-descript, I don't want to stick out like a...

tankinbeans I think they're both about the same, but have never driven a Toyota. I have always leaned more towards Honda, and was floored when I had the opportunity to buy one.

tankinbeans 1995 Honda Accord EX. 145 horses, I know weak, but for a 4-popper it's pretty fast, for me anyway. It's fun to pass people in big sports cars and they just sort of give me a dirty look.
