haha i guess so lol. and i wasnt drafting off any semi's. id like to get around 17 average but its hard cuz it usually fill it all the way up and then drive it down to like a quarter so in that time period usually beat on it. hard to have a full tank of gas and baby it the whole time lol. im not really concerned with mpgs just thought it was awesome i got so high that time

I installed some JY ZJ front seats and test fitted a $12.99 bike rack I got at Savers. Then tried out the reciever I found under the seats from the PO.
