CDI Mileage Update
We just completed a road trip down beautiful highway 1 from San Francisco to Santa Cruz and back over the weekend in the CDI. We got about 34 MPG down with AC on part of the way. Coming back, into a 20 MPH headwind we got about 32 MPG. The whole trip was only about 190 miles, averaging about 50 MPH (range from about 40 to 75 MPH). Great touring car, I was tempted at a stoplight to drag race a mustang, but decided against - 1 recent ticket is enough.

I'm jealous!
That's a beautiful drive, I've done it before. Are you still burning biodiesel? If you are, what blend did you use on the trip?
