Yup honda is known for having accuracy problems. Remember when they got busted for having the odometers running too fast and making cars go out of warranty faster. They had to notify 6 million owners http://www.usatoday.com/money/autos/...ter-usat_x.htm Which makes people think they are getting better MPG.
