Default 2400 Miles a week after buying used, My journey to Pheonix and Back.

After having the poopy scared out of me with tire issues I decided that on my way back from Phoenix to set some great averages.

Pheonix (Carefree) to Flagstaff to ABQ to Amarillo to Wichita Falls to Dallas

15hours 4 minutes

Average speed 74mph

Top speed (burst) 135mph

Avg MPG........................21.8 ( I seriously dont know how I got that kind of economy going as fast as I did.


I just purchased my girl Kate, She did well.

Post trip checks, Oil, Tire Pressure, Alignment, full detail and wax.

Great to read about a good, long, fast drive.

Always pleasantly surprising to find how reasonable the fuel consumption is when you can press the Go pedal and keep it there.

Well done Kate (and Cerberus66 too).
