GAS MPG

[HummerJim]

Steve San Jose - I can tell you from my experiences in the Yukon where the roads are long and straight and the traffic is sparse that cruising 65 mph you will get in the 18s on flat pavement and crusing 80 mph you will get in the 16s - wind resistance is a big factor and the frontal area creates a lot of drag- induced and parasitic. My best ever was north of Whitehorse on the long (95 miles?) gradual downhill straighaway with a brisk tailwind running 66 mph with the cruise- an honest 20.2 mpg. I have the base, and I have heard mileage is not quite as good with the Adventure. I had so much fun up there I'm planning another trip only earlier in the summer for 2006 - late July probably.
