Verdict is in: the wife loves it.

2900 miles covered Wednesday to Monday

17-20 mpg

I could not afford to fly in Danny Popps so I had to do my own proofing above 100 mph - she passed with flying colors. even better after Rob MD's sway bar removal.

Thanks for following along everyone. Until next time....



she did not love me losing the gas cap though



in her final but temporary resting place

This time was easy 80+ most of the way and nearly 250 mile range between fill ups.

Last time was way more work.

In case you all forgot here's the link to the big trip.

Definately not Marfa









Maybe just a little more Marfa



Yes. Only 1600 miles. If only everyone had just locked them up.

You forgot the proof from your apparent detour thru Mexico....and the fact that you also tested how long the wife can cruise with the car on E.
