PT should be the winter beater.

 

I can't do that yet. I have it "dressed" up for a few shows this spring and summer.

 

No the pt should be his winter beater lol ( just kidding)

 

You'd have to pry my HHR SS from my dead fingers..... :)

 

WTF, on my 3k mi trip from San Diego to Dallas, to OKC, to NW OK, to Anaheim, CA, and back to San Diego I only averaged 24.5mpg! Why do I always get such crappy mileage compared to others with the same car??? I kept the cruise on at a few over the speed limit almost the whole time, tried manual driving for a while to keep it from trying to launch itself up inclines and whatnot, but still got 24.5mpg.

 

Low tire pressure?
Cheap gas?
Wrong type of oil?
Hauling too much stuff?

 

Tire pressure was about 35psi, used premium unleaded, but was told after-the-fact that using gas with ethanol would make the mileage lower, and that is what I found a lot of, oil is what's in it from when I bought it, was only at 57% when I left, now about 34%, and I was hauling some stuff, but just luggage and a full size spare, a little more on the way back with my son's Power Wheels.

 

I had the same issue on my return trip from Pittsburgh, and the only variable was the lower temps. Or perhaps the gas in PA is different.

 

Colder temps will affect the gas mileage. I have found that my mileage drops in the winter.

 

I'll be monitoring MPG, temps and PSI on my trip when I leave in about an hour or so.
