Got back from a trip to Vicksburg, MS

The odometer fuel meter had me averaging 20.3 miles per gallon

doing 75-80 most of the time.

This is the first long trip I have taken with the Trac.

My mom and dad were with me, and they were really comfortable riding.

I insisted on taking my trac instead of driving his 09 RAV4.

I'm glad we did. since I did all the driving,

Had a near miss on I20/I75 interchange, thought I got sideswiped by

an idiot talking on his phone, I felt a bump, but when I stopped to check

for damage, there wasn't a scatch. My guess is that the Stability Control

bumped when I swerved? Needless to say I was very relieved.



we're going back on the 19th for a day,

I'll be sure to check the mileage using calculations

for a more accurate reading.

Glad all is ok!

I live in Ga as well.

i have found when friends and family ride in my ST they always seem to want

to use it again and again-lol

Mine is an 02 so no stability control,but there are times I wish it had it.
 
funny thing i just off the USS VICKSBURG(CG-69) which is over seas right now. lol



You don't even want to think about computing her gas mileage...... when I was on warship 66 (the BEST cruiser in Mayport, we were getting about 125k gallons every three to four days. :huh:
