LOL, 2 Accord family.....cool.
My brother has the V6 regular Accord and loves it. To upgrade to the hybrid would have cost too much for all the extras you have to have with electric.
That's decent mileage so far.....
tell us more about the hybrid....

The Car has now 12000 miles on. I am not be really pleased with gas mileage. I do drive a little harder than before average HWY speed is 75. I am ranging any where from 23-25 miles per gallon. Lets see what happens in the spring. Overall the car is great and zippy. I would prob would have bought the reg V6 considering one of my next door neighbors has one he states he gets 27 mpg. Oh well.

Yikes, that's not very good mileage.....
I hope it improves with the finer weather.

Just noticed your from Cambridge Ont I have family there. But it drives and rides nice and it still a gas saver in a sense.
Yeah, been here since '71 and like it, except in winter -- uggggg.
I'm on the west side of the Galt section of Cambridge and your family is where?
Not surewhat my brother gets on his new Accord....I think he said around 30-31 (on our bigger gallon)... he's in the Hespeler (north) section of Cambridge.

damn my 240k mile 4th gen gets that much mpg at the same 70-75 average freeway speeds. then again I guess v6+hybrid=4cyl economy so go figure. Probably would have just got a normal 4cyl accord myself and dropped a h22 in it
