35.1mpg trip to austin
Drove 2006 kia sportage V6 from san Antonio to Austin yesterday:
45 psi oversize tires lower grill block 58mph (GPS) (AMAZING TAIL WIND!!!!!) :eek: got 28.1 coming back :( |
You should add that trip record in your sig, pretty amazing for a sportage :)
|
Well, since it was 'wind aided' I don't want to take too much credit........
rarely is the wind blowing directly at my back on hwy 35. |
Wicked tailwind can be awesome.
I remember being very excited to see 70+ mpg in the Firefly/Metro once, at the posted speed limit on one leg of a trip. The best part is when you don't have to turn around and drive back into what is now a headwind. The BEST BEST part is when the tail wind switches 180 degrees to the opposite direction for the return trip the next day. :D |
the large American flags at the car dealerships were all standing straight pointing exactly up the freeway!!!
