Well as soon as I get off my butt and throw the beer cooler in the trunk, the 5th Ave and me are Carlisle bound! I'll keep an eye out for gas prices, and catch up with y'all when I get back on Sunday!

Replying to: dtownfb (Jul 10, 2009 8:56 am) I ended up filling up at the Shell down here, for $2.799/93 octane and then topped off up in Dillsburg at the Getty at the 15/74 intersection. And again, I was amazed at the NYer's fuel economy. 21.5 mpg. And this time, I made sure to top off, to ensure it was an accurate reading. And I wasn't trying to hyper-mile it or anything. I drove it like I normally would...flow of traffic, or just a bit faster. Probably doing 65-75 for the most part. If some crude, smogged down old brute like that could get that kind of mpg, it sorta makes me wondder why today's cars don't do better! Of course, most of today's cars get a little better than 10 mpg around town!  Oh, while I was up there, I snagged some aluminum alloy wheels, that were originally offered on the '80-83 Cordoba/Mirada. They felt a few pounds lighter than the conventional steel wheels. I wonder if something like that would have any effect on fuel economy, what with that sprung vs unsprung weight, reciprocating mass, or whatever they call it.
