Default New Speed Record

Sped right through $50 at the pump this morning. Good thing it wasn't empty. The better part is the average MPG gauge was reading 22.1 for the last two weeks of daily driving.

I got lucky on my last fill... it was 44.00 or so.

Gas was 2.739 at the local chevron, premuim (cough cough) here in Torrance.
