Hey Nate, do you remember Tony's and Sharon last name? Big english guy. Seems like they visited you. Well, they were here and then disappeared. They had the big bus and went to mexico. They live not far from here and my lady wants to go look them up. I hope Tony did not kick any bucket, but with a last name I could try and find them.

I always forget to jot down the beginning mileage so I can figure out how many total miles each road trip was .
The tankful I added Startron to and ran pretty close to wide open the whole way (80+ ~ 100+) , returned 23.7 MPGs and smoked a fair good bit .
On the way home I passed a gasolinera that said " biodiesel mix " and I keep hearing that bio diesel is good for cleaning out crud so I tanked up with it , added a quart of oil and used the cruise control mostly on the way home , it surges now and then and hunts for whatever speed it wants instead of locking in wherever I set it at , I chose 63 ~ 67 MPH and am keen to see what the end mileage from not speeding will be .
All in all it was a nice trip , the weather was weird , rainy some times , clear and cool @ 84° F others , almost always windy , some times a good 50 MPH blow shoving the car all over the road .
The stations sign said $2.17 credit and $2.12 ca$h , I used my credit card and was pleased to see the actual price was only $2.04 / gallon , plenty of places in Arizona are under $2 / gallon for branded diesel fuel .
