what you need to do is make it a day to look forward too...make an adventure out of it....Look forward to it as a day when you can really test your car out...and I'm sure you'll be driving on a lot of desolate highways, you will be able to push your car a little...drive spiritedly...even when you do that, your gas mileage will still push farther cuz you will be driving at high speed...now, I'm not telling you to drive wreckless, but I would have fun just driving my car...like I said above, I didn't experience any back pain from my drive...just make sure you set intervals to look forward to "to pit" and stretch...of course, bring a radar detector, and be on the look out for oncoming traffic and hidden spots...I got low to mid 20's when I drove that 600 miles, whereas, my normal (now) MPG is between 15-18mpg...

Just for reference, on my trip up to Ohio and back, with highway speeds varying from 65-85, I made over 500 miles on a tank between fill ups, does anyone else find this ridiculous for a 332 hp sports car? well i'm actually much higher than that now, which is even more of a surprise. Avg. MPG according to the HUD: 29

wow...500+ per tank is impressive, i think. not bad.
