Awesome, we enjoy your company. Hopefully we'll get to toss at least on drink back with you.

I'm sure we can fit that in. Plus, it looks like the whole family is riding up separate, so I'm open for a little more spirited driving than last time, I was kinda holding back.

Well I'm down to 1/2 tank now unless I get a new siphon, lol! I should have a solution for that before the cruise.

Scheides and I have always got close to our best mpg while on cruises. We arent going WOT the whole trip, you will be fine. Just bring the 5 gal in case.

Anyone else running E85 on a 2ltr would have the same mileage so I don't get your point. According to the specs we have 1/2gallon more tank capacity than a IX.

Re: Fall Cruise - October 16-17th, 2010!
I would avg. 22-25 with my car, but it only made 440/460 @map.
If you are making a big deal about E85 on one of our cruises you either plan on going WOT for a ridiculous amount of time or have no clue about E85 usage.
On a serious note, I found out that my car needs both side tie rod ends and it should be good to go.

My X did that when bone stock on pump. I suppose weight may be a factor.

How is refuting A/// Guy's incorrect statement 'making a big deal'? 160 miles isn't a problem.

Re: Fall Cruise - October 16-17th, 2010!
You are very right sir.
You can also talk with your tuner about lean cruise, it is an option that I will be looking into over teh winter.
