This was the furthest I've ever driven on a tank. Had about 1.1 gallons left...

Wut? My JSW has a 12.5 with 2 gallon reserve... and I usually make it 500+ miles with 1 gallon left...

You have a diesel.

Also your car is made for economy, mine isn't really. Especially the RS, it has short gearing.

I forgot that the RS had different gearing than the other versions

Hmmm...what have you done so far in order to stretch your economy?

Is that highway? That can't be highway.

Jayhawk Jake > Axel-Ripper

Yeah, all highway. Highway at 80, but highway.

o_o

I see so much potential!! You could possibly get 40mpg out of this thing!!

Jayhawk Jake > Sally O'Broder
11/08/2014 at 12:14

I could at 60MPH, but the speed limit is 75 on the turnpike.

0_0 STOCK?!

I r excite.

I honestly have no idea. 40 is probably aggressive. At least for the RS.

I've made it to 0.1 gallons in a tank. In a vehicle that gets 12 miles to the gallon, that is fun.

What's your RPM at 80?

Eeesh. My LTZ with the 1.4T gets like 38 highway, I've seen as high as 42 if I keep it down around 75 and have a nice tailwind.

RS are very different beasts, mainly their gearing is way different. I can get 40 out of my LTZ with no issues, not even trying.

Do you have problems with people not finding your rear door handles? Or all my friends just special...?

Goodstuff, what wheels are those?

Jayhawk Jake > Long Live the Longdoor

Andros Spec -D? Cheap wheels from tirerack

Jayhawk Jake > Little Black Coupe Turned Silver
11/08/2014 at 16:56

Seriously? The gearing can't be THAT bad in the RS. I've never averaged more than 32 or so.

Jayhawk Jake > Little Black Coupe Turned Silver
11/08/2014 at 16:56

I did initially. Even had a friend not realize there were rear doors.

Jayhawk Jake > Jay Lauer
11/08/2014 at 16:56

Around 3000-32000

This vehicle line is now Sally-approved!

That makes me feel better about my friends. I always have to point out that yes, there are rear doors and handles the first time people ride with me.
