32 mpg

I managed to get 32 mpg on the highway yesterday. However, this was with the cruise set at just under 55 the whole time. That put it just under 2k rpms. While it was nice to get 32 rather than 27, it was a looong hot drive, and i was being passed by priuses and grandmas. I probably won't make a habit of this.

Re: 32 mpg

Without A/C, i do not like to drag my drive on very much. If i had A/C it would be different. I can afford the $.02/mile difference right now.

EDIT: These circuit city adds are really starting to piss me off. Can't even click any links on the site without that fucking add popping up in front of it and taking me to their website.

Firefox + Ad Block Plus & NoScript plugins = No more ads. Ads are a thing of the past for me.
