Actually, i do get really good highway mileage out of my car. On a highway, when i am just cruising along, i really can pull 20 mpg or so at 70-80 mph. This spring, i drove several hundred miles in a pouring rain, such that i just sat at about 50-55 mph, and with careful throttle, due to rain, i really did get an accurately measured 23 mpg.

If you don't drive much, or your car is a "waxer" or show car, or a "sunday" car, mpg doesn't matter much. But for a daily driver like me, about 63-65 thousand miles, it actually is pretty important.

I can have my cake, and eat it too. Actually, being in South Carolina, a better expression would be "i can have my pecan pie, and eat it too."

If you have never had Southern BBQ, or Carolina Pecan Pie, you just have no idea what you have missed.

This is why God made the Pig.
