    Ok, out of interest, now we have all been doing some mileage in our cars this year, what do you think your all getting to the gallon?
    I know it depends on spec/driving, but Classic Ford trip for me was 430 miles there and back, with a few "plays" on the way. I was astonished to find mine was doing 36mpg! with twin 45's! It has a 5 speed which must help

                        We did especially on the way home, oh and my temp problem was great on the way home, it was 3/4-red on the way up, didn't go above half on the way home. Heaters were still blowing cold though, but I don't mind that
