Thank you for the warm welcome and the mpg figures everyone! Being that I'm a field rep and this car will be my mobile office I was really hoping that there is a posibility of getting close to 30mpg.
Told my kids that the color of the car was called Nighthawk Black Pearl. There response was, "The Black Pearl? Like in Pirates of the Caribbean?" So now the car has it's name.
Does that make me Captain Jack Sparrow?

.You have 3.2 engine, not 3.5 one. That engine sips less fuel. So you'll have more chances of getting higher highway mpg than 3.5 one.
Enjoy the car.

Finally!
After a nightmare scenario of weather and other mishaps it arrived today! She still needs a few things but I'm hitting the road with her tomorrow!
The windows were tinted DARK!!! Way to dark for this state anyway. Nice job too. I peeled the front doors off and left the back doors and rear window. Will probably leave it like that.
Needs:
Review mirror - Auto dim appears to have gone permanently dark.
Floor mats - Considering the OEM all weather.
Fob - Only came with one key.
Wants:
Trunk tray - What the difference between a 04-06 and an 07-08 tray?
Owner's manual - Didn't come with one.
Full detail job - Will probably wait until spring and get some minor body work repaired as well.
Over all I'm very happy with my purchase. With the delay and little flaws my broker knocked some off the price.

Check fuse #20 for the mirror (if your windshield washer doesn't work, it's the fuse. Replace with a 10A fuse. There is a TSB to use a 10A vice a 7.5A.

Either Kahill's on the Nebraska side or Bev's on the River on the Iowa side. Both are very good.
