The biggest drag of my commute is the freeway, I just haven't had time for aero mods. I broke 500 miles on one tank for the first time. I think with more EOC I can break 50mpg in this car. It just takes so long to get a tank fillup! (Not that I'm complaining) __________________

I remember my first 600 mile tank, then 650, then 700 and am looking for that 750 tank. 741 is my record.
