[s-cars] 470 miles on one tank of gas!

[mike claire]

I was just standing there reading //S-Mail on my Blackberry  as I was
filling up (I find that our gas cap jams into the nozzle nicely for
hands-free operation).

The low fuel chime went off at 420 miles, just  as I rolled in. I got
18.0 gallons in it before it started dripping down the overflow tube.

That's 23.33333 MPG, highest ever. All "local" highway miles with some
"regular" miles. But I might as well have been driving a  Camry. Not
worth it - I'm shooting for 20 next tank.
