It's hilly around here, and I go about 65-70. I try never to accelerate up hill, in fact letting the speed drop slowly up hill saves. My 745 M46 gets about 26.5 highway, and I think it's due to the 3:71 rear in it as opposed to the 3:31 in the 245. My 245 automatic gets about 26, it has a 3:54 rear. Engine speed has a big effect. Only way I can get over 30 is to draft a semi, then it goes to 31-33. -- 84 242Ti IPD bars&springs, 89 745 16v M46 IPD bars, 89 744 16v M46 IPD bars, 90 745 AW70, 91 245SE AW70 IPD bars, 93 245 CLassic M47 Mark this post as an answer to my question<- Use this feature to mark quality replies to your post.
