When I drive, my foot is barely resting on the accelerator pedal.
Sell the PT and get a honda then..

You are obviously not very good at following conversations. I said if somebody is wanting better mileage and bought an SRI for their PT, chances are, they aren't going to drive heavy footed.

Oh, and I've owned and still do own plenty of hondas. I got 417 miles off my last tank. Last time I put gas in was the 15 (last paycheck). I averaged 35mpg 95% city driving. Do that in your pt.

I'm tired of this same conversation happening over and over..

I didn't buy a PT to see how much fuel I could save, I would have bought a TDI jetta - 50mpg.. I did my research before I bought a car and picked what was best for my needs.

This is a PT forum not a Honda forum..

I understand this.. hell, even I try getting better gas mileage, and I get better gasmileage than 90% of the cars on the road! Just because you buy a car that is or isn't good on gas doesn't mean there wont be people who try to improve it.
