Such hostility. I loved my Saab 900 Turbo, and my '67 Mustang. The rotary isn't at the zenith of all engines, although it's definitely cool. Sheesh.

'67 Mustangs are amazing. Greek, Brat, and I were talking about those at the meet. That body style will always be a classic.

I have always wanted a 65 Mustang. Dark Blue with white top... I even have a little car model of it.

I've driven roughly 90 miles in the last month and a half, so I couldn't tell you what mileage I'm getting. 2 months or so on 1 tank of gas. Hehe.

I was getting horrible gas mileage and couldn't figure it out. After I filled up on Saturday before heading to Springs, I ended up driving about 230 just on Saturday alone and I'm still going on that tank, I think I hit 315 this morning coming to work and my light came on. I was getting around 260 on a tank. Now I'm back to normal for me. Maybe it just needed the little road trip on Saturday. lol

So since this topic is back up, I think I should calm down on my driving a little bit. I made it from Denver to GOTG this last meet with under a quarter of a tank. I was shocked. Ususally the way I drive I make it there and back on a whole tank not half.
