Look at my mileage! 
Glad it isn't Friday the 13th, then I'd really be in trouble! | |

Also, I assume you made it to 131314 ok?  | |

Aurora40-my car burst into flames and exploded at 131313.9 miles.   klnyc-for some odd reason, my 626, even with a V6 is geared lower than my Honda was. At 3000 rpm, my Accord was going 78 mph. What is even weirder is that my Accord was a bit quicker off the line despite the slightly higher gearing but the 626 is a lot quicker from 50 mph up.

I wouldn't look at my mileage if it was that - I'd be a little more worried about the engine check light that appears to be on... | |
