    "How can you go wrong with 48 mpg!"

    by gbarbur on August 27, 2008

    Pros: 1) With stock wheels and tires it gets 48 mpg
    2) Very smooth shifting 5 spd
    3) It even has cruise control
    4) The E-con system is cool and easy to use

    Cons: 1) Stock CD player only plays about 4 songs on each CD
    2) Hard to find after market items for the 1.3L engine
    3) Hard to hear engine during acceleration (that can be remedied - Vroom, vroom)
    4) Road noise in passenger compartment

    Summary: I'm 61 years old and I went "Green". I purchased a nice set of after market wheels and tires (215/50R-16) but I lost 8 mpg for time I have had them on.
    I had the windows tinted by Ziebart.
    I put on wind deflectors on all four doors.
    Nobody said "going green has to be dull".
    With a little preparation anyone can personalize their Hybrid and have a fine looking automobile.
    This car will buy back all items you put on it with the gas you save.
    I'm sold and looking forward to the 2009 Hybrid CR-Z
