Check engine light on? I wish I lived that close to work. I'd be riding a bike.

check engine light not on. With the new required mileage estimates on modern cars (i.e Honda Accord 4 cyl) estimated at 23 city under perfect conditions (110 pound female, no cargo in trunk, feather throttle, 35 LB tire pressure, I guess I can't complain considering 10 yr old car with older emissions controls, cat conv., sensors, ignition parts, etc... Weighing 260 with the 1 mile commute doesn't help either. I should count my blessings with the 2 mile round trip and ignore the 15 MPG's.
Thanks again. Great feedback!

Those short trips can be a killer on the car. It never fully warms up, barely gets into closed loop before it's shut off...If you can get it out on the highway ever once and a while and get some time on it.....

Another factor of really short trips like than one is the likelihood of the engine oil becoming acidic and causing mechanical problems down the road. You should change your engine oil 2-3K under that driving condition.
