    Nice Deb! :D

    In one week I put 1100 miles on it. mpgs dropped to 41.6 on second trip to Chicago. (torrential rain, loaded down, ac blasting). Back up to 43.6 mpgs on the third trip up and back.

    Today I wore a tie-dyed dress while driving it. heh heh heh....

    Over 4500 miles on 'er now. It's a nifty little vehicle. Best mpg to Chicago was 45.8 mpg hauling 400 lbs of squash plus a 150 qt cooler full of eggs. (had a tailwind!)
