is250? or 350? wow..37.1 ... what was your average speed?

I've actually been able to take a nice snooze in my school parking lot while waiting for class to start.

37.1... that is really good. I'm curious to know if you've got a 250 or 350 as well. I think the only way i'd ever be able to manage that high gas mileage would be to draft a big rig the entire way.

I have a 250......Cruz control and had it set at 69mph......of course there were times when idiots would do something to cause you to ither turn off the control or speed up...but nonetheless it is what it is......hell, when I did fill up it told me I had 400+ miles on that tank!

i second that the car isn't comfy to sleep in. i tried to sleep in the passenger seat once with the seat fully reclined. my back was killing me! seems likes its too narrow around the shoulder blades. i tried sleeping in the driver's seat once and that was a lil better. don't even think about sleeping sideways in the back seat hahah

Higher elevation yields better gas mileage. The air is thinner so you get a favorable lean condition. Also in higher elevations, gasoline octanes are lower. For instance, the usual 87 octane we're accustomed to, the higher elevations have 86 octane and sometimes 85 Octane for Regular Unleaded.

wow 37.1mpg, I would never be able to reach that in my lifetime.

for some reason, when i drive on long trips i can't keep that car at 70mph. i have to go at least 85

Dude, I had a pillow and tried to sleep in the back seat in the fetal position...LOL I'm 5'11"......LOL. The front seat was really out of the question...all in all I was way too tired at a point to even care and fell asleep in the drive front seat for about four hours. Back was killing me!

True, high octane here is 91 max.....and the cost runs more.
