Ive got to figure something out, can't have one of my kids run the camera because that would set a bad example. And I'm not letting my wife do it, cause all you'd hear would be her cussing me out.

Got a little wild today. The car will run 164 mph at 6000 RPMs in 5th gear. It was actually still pulling pretty hard when I let off. This speed is confirmed by my GPS, obviously the speedometer doesn't go that high.

Lol, fuel economy has sort of taken a back seat lately. Got 14 mpg today with that run included. Have some extended driving to do tomorrow.

Nice long trip this week with some dirt roads, some state highway (72 mph), and some interstate (82 mph). I jumped on it pretty good a few times and still averaged 21 mpg.

Yeah, I try to get decent MPGs out of my car, but sometimes you just need to hammer the throttle!!

That's pretty good MPG but what about the SPM (Smiles per mile)?

Yeah, if there was a gauge for that it would be pegged all the time!
