17mpg city, 19 mpg highways. We were able to drive from Salt Lake City most
the way to Las Vegas before having to fill up the tank again , some 400 miles
distance. I just wish our model had a tow bar for a trailer.

Thanks man, I bought it. It's just an awesome ride. I can't stay outta it.
It's got it all. Still smells new. Mine came with the tow package on it.
According to the lil digital readout mpg thingy, it's getting about 17 on
highway right now , haven't had it out open yet. 400 on a tank is good man.
I"m smitten with mine. I just want to drive around like a stupid 16 year
old again.

wow, those are great numbers.
can't believe it's been re-engineered from the old 14/17 mpg from the
previous design.
