Weird mpg?
I was sitting in my driveway tonight going through my cds, and while I sat there with the car idling the mpg reading slowing started going down. I didn't sit there long enough for it to stop falling, but by the time I shut the car off it was reading somewhere around 11.5 mpg. Why would it do this? Any thoughts?

RE: Weird mpg?
Hi
The same happens to my car, whats really amazing is that the louder i play the shaker 1000 and the higher i turn up the AC the MPG gets even worse.
Im concerned ive got one of the lemons that seem to be running rampant on here lately !!!
Should i trade it in for a Corolla or a Civic hybrid ??
Please help
Steve

Wow, that is just like the case with PC users----some of them just shouldn't be using PC's.
You there, neodymiumex, turn off the car, remove the keys, and hand them over to the Mustang Driver Fitness Police!
Just kidding. I like asking stupid questions because it makes everyone else feel smarter.....
