The '05 Golf ate the miles up yesterday, we did Peterborough, NH to Waterville, ME in one 200+ mile run. I *think* the speedo reads 5mph slow which might explain the 45mpg. Some of that is no doubt the around town driving I'd been doing though. My bladder limited us to Houlton for our next top, only 170 miles, disappointing ;) Most of that was at 85mph indicated. 7 hours flat from Peterborough to Caribou, Google says 430 miles, they say 6:30 but I think that'd be a tough number to hit...
I got diesel for $3.79 in Waterville. Didn't really need it but it was the cheapest I'd seen to that point. On the way back I'll stop in Clinton, it was $3.75 when I cruised through. -Curt On Saturday, June 8, 2024 at 10:35:40 PM EDT, Craig via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: On Sun, 9 Jun 2024 01:24:09 +0000 (UTC) Curt Raymond via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > Tomorrow I'm going to take it to the great northern estate.
