The driving experience is well worth it.

it should be more the 100 hp. my wifes civic i think only makes 110 hp. pretty sure n e ways.

An interesting bit of news.

Echo SSEi runs premium in Arizona (91 Octane)
I run premium in CT (93 Octane)

When they say premium.. which number do they really mean?

In my neck of the woods premium is always 91+. Most cases 91-93. Midgrade is 89-90, and regular is always 87.

I've seen gas stations with 4 choices, the 4th is 83. I dont know why, but I have seen it.

glad to have you back and safe

Glad to here your back. just my 2 cent if had money I would go with the i factor.

I can get 94 octane in the city (Calgary), but it'* 1.5 hours away. And even that isn't the norm, 91 is typically "Premium" here.

I don't think car manufacturers make any distinctions.

Welcome back, from a fellow vet!!!!! I AM so grateful for your service.

Also, congrats on the news of a comming baby girl!!! I have just been blessed with my second child, a baby girl who is 2 1/2 weeks old!!!

And, I too agree that the ssei is the way to go. I have a lot of room to spread out even with a carseat in the back. And the gas milage is pretty good as well.

I just want to say thanks for your sacrifice and service in helping keeping our nation safe as well as helping other countries go through the transition from tyrrany to normal life. It takes alot of guts and I salute you.
