The missus and I decided to air out her new ride yesterday. We set out for Christopher Creek where we used to have a trailer, 110 miles in distance and a mile in elevation away. Came home the long way, along Roosevelt, through Globe. Always a fun, twisty turny drive, this time was great. The 306 ponies under the hood had to demonstrate to two or three miscreants who really was King of the Road. Didn't get to the advertised top end of 142, but came close - smoooooth as buttah, eerie quiet, eager to accelerate. Even driven enthusiastically, occasionally quite so, we got a bit more than 26 mpg.
