I drive about 155 average with the odd good one at 180. Of course, I only use a Wilson 3 wood circa 1998 slightly oversized so it may make a diference.

it has the highest output per liter of a naturally aspirated inline or V-configuration motor, 120 HP/Liter....higher than Ferrari's and Lamborghini's...it is sooo fun, especially when revving to 9,000+ RPM

I have a quarter-mile lane to practice on. So going to get the paper, which is delivered at the other end of the lane, is pretty cool.

Although I haven't yet driven my car because I need to replace the gasket cover on it; so right now it burns oil . I think it will get okay gas mileage though. Tedster, how much gas mileage do you get with that ?

Oh on gas I get about 18mpg in the city
on corn samplin's I get about 15 mpg in the city
I think it's more actually for both, but i haven't driven my vehicle in almost a year. I've been deployed.

I recently traded my 2004 Dodge Dakota (quad cab, SLT, 4.7L V8 Automatic 4x4) for a 2007 Ford Fusion (mid-size sedan, SE, 2.3L I4 Manual FWD).

this car was not my first choice, but it was a good combination of looks, price, features, and fuel economy. I have gone from 13~14MPG highway with my Dakota to 31~33MPG highway with my Fusion. and it's fun to drive too

TREE HUGGERS REJOICE!!

BTW, check out my new car PC. i'm almost finished installing everything into my new fusion

A 1996 Nissan 240sx SE is my weapon of choice. To whomever sends me an SR20DET motor free of charge: I will declare you the undisputed master of all that is cool!

I have a BMW 318 and a Vauxhall Corsa. I'm getting rid of the BMW as it's crap. It's a saloon and not very practical. The boot is a funny shape so you can't get anything bulky in it and the back seats don't go down in a saloon. The Corsa is ace though. 1.2 16 valve, it has got some kick to it, plus you can get all sorts of crap in the back (and the seats go down!!!). Added bonus that when you park it in Tesco car park or on a road you don't worry somebody is going to damage it, cos you don't care if they do!

KingCody, I know what you mean with the low fuel mileage of the Dakota. My parents used to drive a 5.9 liter Dodge Durango. That thing was cool, never lacked power, but fuel economy was about 12-14 MPG. My mom liked the Jeep's fuel bill better too
