Nav & Mileage on a Long Trip
 

This past weekend I did a run from NYC to Wash D.C. and i tracked the MPG. The vehicle ran 19.1 MPG with an average speed of 73 MPH. Not to bad. THis was over a 500 mile run, round trip. I agree that the city MPG sucks, barely 11.5.

The Nav and Real time Traffic worked great. I was heading up the NJ turnpike trying to cross into LI and the nav directed me to the Lincoln tunnel. I would never take a route through NYC to access LI however i put on the 1010 wins and found the GW bridge with 30 minute delays and staten island expressway(Verrazano Br) with 30 min delays. I took a shot and flew through the tunnel, cross town and into LI. Hey maybe this does work! So far it's been accurate.

Also - I have 3000K miles and i dont experience any hesitation from a standstill nor any tranny Jerks. The tranny will a bit confused for the first 1500 miles, but it has gotten better.

ooo...nice to hear that rtti really is working. :thumbup:

Thanks!

you have a 3.0si?

edit: at about 50 miles, I'm showing a 13 mpg average. But I know that will change.

I apologize - it would have made more sense if i told you it was the 4.8!

wow...That's good hwy mileage!
