Thanks, Sentra. Most of my family is gone from there now (I`m originally from the peninsula), so I don`t get that way often any more, but I`ll drop you a line if I ever do find myself around there with extra time on my hands. Okay, so the low speed P&G isn`t what you do on the highway.

It also surprises me that you run at 55 over the passes (I know that 50 has some pretty high ones too) and still don`t kill your FE. I guess you`ve already considered it, or maybe even tried, but to get to GBNP I`d be tempted to take the interstate all the way across and then cut down. It`s flatter and even with more traffic it has two lanes each way, so people could get around. I suppose the extra miles are the down side though. Any rate, from your numbers, you obviously have a good system going. Very impressive all in all!
