Well. Highway trip for business. Good thing I'm getting paid for the miles, otherwise I'd be a sad panda indeed.

HOT (97F) so AC was used. Far enough for time to matter, so speed was high (for me ).

48 mpg / 256 going there
55 / 253 back home

This Fit is not a highway criuser. 2900 rpm at 60 is terrible. The steering gets darty at high speed and you have to be on your game the whole time to keep it straight. It's a great commuting car, though.
