OK, my route is Toronto to Hastings Mi, 340 miles which is really quite a flat drive with some elevation difference (Hasting MI, higher than TO).
In the past, several years ago I logged 27.2 M/US gallon in my 90' Automatic SC - this was very steady, no stops other than a SHORT border wait.
Yesterdays results in a 92' 5Spd
Toronto to Hastings, 70mph in Canada, 75-80 in the US (border is 1/2 way)
20 minute border wait
23.6 M/US gallon
Hastings to Toronto (75MPH in the US, 70 MPH in Canada)
VERY steady, no boost.
SHORT border wait - less than 2min idling
One TIM HORTONS detour 2miles coutry road
****340 miles 10.5 US gallons 32.3 M/US Gallons****
I was very careful to get the tank quite full.
I always felt my 27.2 was very high and un-beatable before yesterday!
