Accord 2.4 or Escape 2.0 on long drive

[federal]

Guys, I have a dilemna. Given the fact of high gasoline prices being evident in the market, I don't know which car to bring to my long drive to Subic tomorrow AM.

Car 1:
Accord 2.4L Best km/L = 7.2km/L on city driving.
Ave km/L = 6.4km/L on city driving. Never tried Highway pa.

Car 2:
Escape 2.0L BEst km/L = never tried. Hirap kasi tong engine nya
for her size on city driving. Seemed efficient naman
on its last drive to Subic except on steep grades.
Ave. km/L = 5.5Km/L. Am scared to bring this car might for it
gulp up gas given the semi-high grades at tipo
road.

Any insights would be appreciated. P.S. The Trailblazer is out of the question.

The Trailblazer is definitely out of the question...

Talagang guzzler yung 2.0 na Escape, I'd go for the Accord.

Sabi ko nga, may magsasabi ng ganito... either that, or baka di niya ma-a-Ford ang gas...

accord. subic naman e. ok naman ang roads going there. kung sagada ang pupuntahan mo mas ok ang escape.

I'd go for the Accord too even if I don't like its exterior styling much.

If I'm looking for a small SUV, I still won't get an Escape though.

akala ko hype lang ito, wow ang sarap ng ride. nakakapanghinayang palitan ng coilover, hahaha

I agree na mas matipid ang accord at comfortable ang ride. Hindi ako usually nakakatulog sa byahe, pero nung Accord ang dala namin sa 5-hour drive, I slept like a baby

11.89 km/L on a 3.0 Accord at speed of 75-80mph

have a safe trip federal.

FXT, baka nga...bling bling amf

binebenta ko na yung chrome ng $600 para makabili ng ma-ayos.

nakatulog ako, then ang byahe namin naging 5-hours lang.
