I have absolutely no complaints about my 940 R/R. I got it at 127k miles, and it's now at about 146k in 20 trouble-free months.

Starts instantly at -35°f. With the AW-71L, I have gotten over 30 mpg on mostly level state/county roads with 35# in the tires. Overall mileage on my son's trip to Maine, Vermont, and back last week (425 miles on 4 studded snow tires) was 26.7 mpg. And I doubt he was babying it much.

Other than some parts prices, which I have yet to spend, I can't fault anything. Operation has been flawless.
