Default Re: 10,000 mile critique of the 2008 H2

Hey all, finally signed up:

Hey you are right, i just picked up my 08 Solar Flare SUV 3 weeks ago and the dealer put 87 and i know because i rode with the guy to do it. Also it runs way better on 93. I will take pics if no one believes me, but i drive 60 miles highway round trip to hospital and i got 16.9 this morning on the way to work and 15.4 on the way home. I went exactly 65mph because i just hit cruise and go. There have times I have hit 17+ mpg avg highway, but that drops fast to 15 when I hit city driving. I have pretty much averaged this for the past three weeks. I have gotten over 400 miles on the last three tanks and it is only getting better. Now when i take it out to the country, off road, or drive in huge hills and twists and turns it has dropped to 12.9 and i am talking huge hills and I am sure everyone knows this thing works very hard to get up any incline( Does like to go downhill pretty fast, thank you gravity)
