Thumbs up

Well this is when I fueled up in Houston before coming back.

I drove the SDL tonight... temps were normal now. Go figure.

I'm working real hard trying to get 24. EPA rates the car at 22 city 23 highway I think. Maybe I could do better on the flatlands at 55 with the windows up and the cruise control on.

21-23.5 all around town, lots of AC use as well. My best ever was 27ish, but I bet I could beat that, havn't done a road trip this year.

I think black on black, or 904 blue on 971 anthracite are the best W126 color combo's.

IMHO they are to large for a light color, plus dark colors show off there body lines better.
