COSTCO article "Going the distance"

...anybody notice the article, "Going the distance," (page 68) of the APRIL 2010, Costco CONNECTION, Vol. 15, No. 4, magazine?

...it's about Craig Henderson's AVION (Fuel Economy over 100 miles per gallon - Avion) that he averaged 103.7 mpg during trip from Mexico to Canada.

...pictures of his red car have been posted here before, that's how I recognized it...that and its silver full-wheel wheel covers!
