McTimson -

I just checked, and this route has a 434 foot drop, not the 210 I originally cited. Soooooo, on a goldilox day, I am almost positive I would get a "record" MPG.

But, I took it again today and I was reminded of why I hate this route. Lot's of tailgaters pushing me to drive too fast. Everybody follows the 0.25 second rule instead of the 3 second rule. I had to sit by a trucker with a cellphone to his ear. Arghhhhhhh !!!!
