|  My mileage REEAALLY SUCKS !!!
Went to work this morning. Left the house it was 50° on the way to work it got colder and colder. Got to work and there was frost on the ground. Checked the temp...37° !!! Shesh !!! Checked back home's temp at the same time and was now 49° !!! WTF !!!  I just rode 70 miles and half of that was in mid 30 degree weather at 80MPH...Now started back home and was kinda taking my time 60-70 MPH plus the wind was gusting to about 25mph, got about 25 miles out and the low fuel light kicks on  and I'm only at 108 miles, so I pull into the Shell station and fill up. She takes 3.064 gals.@108.7 miles = 35.48 MPG...So, with 87 octane mileage is worse so far (was getting 41 MPG on 93 octane)...Zed
