This is from my trip from Portland Oregon to Ft. Hood Texas. The highest i saw my MPG was 27...but as stated before, drive flat out and who cares. Had three suit cases and some duffle bags in the back...plus running with a porsche at 115 in cali, plus fooling around 125 in the desert. But my normal speed was around 70-80, but as the trip says...70mph average.

oh trust me mine normally sucks bad. when driving around normally i only commute maybe 10-15 miles a day at the MOST. I think im averaging a 13mph average and around that in MPG...and getting around 200 or so miles/tank. Sucks...
