Posts: 181 | Trusted steed for daily work commute of 80 miles @ 80 MPH. Wish I didn't have so much traffic (Chicago) so that I could have bought a 5 speed. Just filled up yesterday @ $2.79/gallon and got 30 MPG - love it. | | | 08-20-2005, 12:40 AM | #15 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Vancouver, B.C.
