Default Recent Freeway / Highway Runs

Over the past eight weeks I've had to run up to OKC from Austin four times. About 800 miles r/t. Rather than fly, I opted to take the Z (2009 Sport / Tour 6MT). I've taken the direct route up I-35, and I've taken the back route to the West up and down 281 and various other back highways and roads.

The fun factor driving this car never fails, even on long freeway stretches. It's also comfortable enough for these longer drives. Running up through the gears on/off ramps, dropping a gear or two for spirited passing, or just cruising along at 80+ (and often sometimes quite a bit faster when conditions permit).

And at 26 MPG even when running at higher speeds for long periods, that's icing on the cake.

I don't think I'll ever tire of this vehicle, and I'll see it in my garage forever.

Just thought I'd share.

I2D.
