Also, they didn't start doing the RS (Roush Six) until after mine was done- in which they no longer fabricate new body panels, they adapt the panels on the vehicle. I have the last Roush fabricated bumper (not the very last one made, but the last mass Roush vehicle produced one).
I am not too familiar with RS4s, I have never heard of that before. Is that something new in the pipeline? Last time I was there, when I went into the bay with the guys, they had to cover something up and asked me not to take photos of it (I take 300-500 photos each visit lol). Could this have been the RS4?

I made this past tank to 39.41 mpg. I was SO CLOSE TO 40! My main goal, not at this point, but next up, was 600 mpt. I noticed while driving back from a conference that I had 580+ mpt, and even if it meant walking, I was getting 600+.
My ultimate goal is to beat Fords record, 44 mpg on a closed circuit @ 44 mph, with the LRR tires and the auto tranny-while I will be on public roads, with GT rims/performance tires, and standard drive, just driving it.
This Friday my underbody is being installed- and I think my 40 mpg tank is coming soon!
