last thursday sucked.....

well, that was about the time gas prices went to the rape-me-in-the-ass level they are now, and I crossed 80k in my car

i had to drive 110 miles/day for the first 7 months of this year and it just killed my mileage. so, i've decided to park her for a while. not sure, but i'm contemplating getting a cover and pulling the battery for the winter. only problem is i already miss it.






sorry for the meaningless post........

I have 91k, probably 92k by the end of the weekend on my 03 CL. I'd say keep driving it, you bought it for a reason and it probably gets better gas mileage than anything else you're going to drive.

I was very surprised to clock 29mpg on a trip to the TX coast last weekend with AC on at 70mph, must have had the wind to my back. In the city is much less, 18-22.

Well my CLS get about 25mpg, get better on trips
my explorer get about 16mpg

My cycle get 50-60mpg so needless to say I haven't driven a vehicle other than the cycle in sometime. I do miss the car though

And after the first snowfall I don't drive the CLS till the weather breaks anyway so my withdrawl is starting early this year

This past Labor day weekend I went to Southern California and averaged 23 miles per gallon at 73 mph in the 2004 RL which weighs a ton and yes the AC is always on.....
