Very nice! Did you have the block heater last winter, or is your confidence borne maybe by your more recent improvements in driving technique?

BTW, you might have caught me on the top vehicles list if not for weather and my alternator optional mod.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
