Vadim,

I just got back from a trip to Atlantic City this morning, an I got 26.7avg.MPG at a avg. of 69MPH. I am in the NYC Metro area and the trip is about 250 miles round trip w/about

90% highway. I used Amoco(gold 93 octane), and the car was just wonderful.....the worst part....it was her first night to sleep outside

(temps were about 22°F this AM)...the best part was the way the LPT pushes you back in the seat when you use the kick down at 80 MPH....OH and the $700 I won at the Black Jack table.

I was very happy with the MPG.....I am not used to this high a MPG due to the fact that 95% of the driving I do in within NYC. The LPT kicks butt in heavy city traffic also!

Happy Holidays to all,

Steve Ferraro

Hoboken, NJ
