The 2.5L is an upgrade from the 2.3 use in earlier years. The AT is now a 6 speed..
At around 65 MPH, it's only turning about 2,030 RPMs.
Which means it's good for hypermiling!
It's possible to get 22 city and about 38 highway.
I think the best run I've made so far, is 10 miles,
hitting a trip average of 40 MPG right at the end.
Current Mods:
Class3 hitch, so I can save money on gas by riding
a bicycle.
Which of course, will be first transported by the
bike rack, plugged into the 2" hitch..
