On the way to Everybus I stopped and got gas just
before reaching the campground. When I calculated my
mileage on my PDA in a database that I use to keep
track of mileage and service expenses, it came out
26.5 MPG on th trip from Asheville, NC to Greensboro,
NC. Of course this was in my wasserboxer at an average
65 mph. On the way back to Asheville (which is uphill
most of the way home) I got 23.7 MPG. Not too shabby
for a Wolfy with 202,000+ miles on it, eh?....Rodney
