I know what you mean, my 68 gets 11 miles per gallon.
That's quite the digital display on the center console of the Murano.
By the way, gorgeous lady also. (I'm old but not blind.)
Good luck with the new wheels, will not only save a few bucks on gas but also (more importantly) wear and tear on the 68.

Nice ride Dave. My wife and I drove one about a year or so ago when she was REALLY wanting one. I had just bought my truck and told her we could not afford it at the time. Very nice machine, I like the adjustable height headlights and the variable drive trannys. Have fun with it.
BTW, the wife just got an 06 MX-5. Very sweet ride in its own right.

Very nice DD.
