Billy-
you have 'short drives' too? what kind of mileage are you getting?
I am working diligently on the driving I DO get to work on keeping my fuel consumption at a minimum of 40 on the bar (FCD?) display, and coast as much as possible- not that flat here though. yesterday coming back from a highway trip (yea) with the kids, I put it in neutral and coasted from the stop sign, about 1/2 mile to our driveway: this included a small down hill, a flat, and ended with a small uphill - me and the kids were betting if we'd make it up the hill, and then how far past- we made it to about a foot from our driveway and stopped. (no cars on the road behind us) So I put it in gear and pulled in.
We're still having fun with the new toy!
