Have had the Civic Hybrid for 19 months. Normal city driving was
showing 32 mpg. Dealer inspected, could find nothing wrong, and
apparently seemed to think I ought to be satisfied, even tho they
advertise 48 mpg in town.

Received a recall on the car, and after talking to the dealer, it
apparently was a software fix for the computer - ahh I thought, maybe
that will help the pathetic gas mileage. Well, it's been a couple of
weeks now since the update and I am presently seeing 29 mpg.
