Got back from my trip to Branson. We used Branson as staging area to the superb driving roads of NW Arkansas.. The 4cyl AT 05 LX did just fine in them there hills..The engine and tranny never got caught with their pants down. Downshifts right when wanted and/or needed.. Run A/C all weekend and still averaged 31.5 on two tanks that were just for cruisin rural 4 lane at 70 or slightly higher. 2 people and moderate luggage. The other tank got 27 MPG even with 3rd gear runs up the side of the mtns at 4000 to 5000 RPM's and lots of scenic overlooks where we left the A/C runnin. A good driving trip but just wished that my Accord steered with more accuracy and with more feedback.
