My friend and I decided to go up to Orlando its about 180 miles from where i live, to do some wakeboarding. Anyway trip was great drove about 80 tere and about 85 on the way back and the car handled perfectly. Only thing though is now my windshield wiper is extremly squeky and like bounces accross my windshield, but it coudl be because on the way up we got hit by soo many bugs we had to stop to wash the windshield cause we were not able to see out of it at all, we could have seen better out of it if there was a black stiker covering the whole windshield!

Time for some new wiper blades and some 20/10 windshield cleaner.

I actually got my car washed and the wipers are working fine now. as for the gas mileage i filled up right before i got on the highway on the way doing about 78 i used almost 3/4 of a tank. And on the way back doing about 82 i used just over half a tank. The trip is 180 miles.

Could you be a little more vague when describing gas mileage? :giggling:

The trip odometer and gas station receipt with gallons filled are your friends. :clapping:
