The trip went great. I didn't have any problems with the car at all, except I think I found every rattle (no stereo). It was L.A. to Seattle, we left at 2:30AM Monday, my trip computer totals were:

Avg speed: 70mph
Avg MPG: 22
Drive time: 17:09

The weather was incredible and we only got rained on for about 30 sec. the whole drive. We got into Seattle at 9:15pm Monday. I put the coupe through the paces on an open stretch of I-5 once, I was pretty impressed with the stability and acceleration at high speed. At any rate we had a great time and took some pictures so here ya go.

That last one cracked me up, I'm a pilot and couldn't help but take a picture of Weed Airport.

Until Next time,

22mpg is kinda low, 25-28 is normal

I think the T-stat is bad and contributing to the low MPG.

BakerCoupe

It has only raised past the first real bar (1/4?) a few times ever....
