Very cool. I think I would have a tendency to squirt away from stop lights at the least provication.

I get 20 to 23 mpg driving on the road with no real load; and I averaged 16.71 mpg towing my M15 from Pullman to Anacortes and back (808 miles round trip) over the Cascade Mountains at 60-70 mpg (yes, even 60 mph up the grades). --Gary Hyde N24 'Sailabration' M15 #235 'Vanilla'
