    That was probably at the recommended tire pressure.

    I run mine a little harder at 42/40 which increases mileage.

    Thanks...maybe I was thinking of the Civic. I guess he could do worse than that, afterall.

    50 on the highway? wow... they must drive slower than we do :blink:

    I got 47 at 70mph so they must've been doing 60.
