I found that my 11 year old with 183K on the clock can and will get 28-30mpg if I drive a nice 70mph on the highway.

Definately went down with a bit of city driving,... my foot was still learning how to behave as well. I'll get real miles over gallons this coming week to know the true number. That was the DIC reading and probably off a tad.

Last night was a motor/trans install into a cradle, then a trans swap. Both went very well.
