Smoky Mountain Trip
Just got back from cruise'n the Smokies. It was a lot of fun. Had a lot of people looking at my car and a few comments when I stopped here or there to let me know how sharp of a car it is. It handled the mountains real well.
I don't know how accurate the MPG readout is but going down there on Thursday with all the wind, I was averaging 28.6 and coming back, I was averaging 29.7. Even hit 29.9 a couple of times. Of course, being an "Old man", I had the cruise set on "safe 72" so I wouldn't get a ticket. But still I thought it was pretty good mpg.
