Default Tin Indian Drive

Took the TinIndian to Laughlin, same route we always go four hr drive. Ran the 2.4L Solstice a bit harder then the ION-2.4L or the Kizzy 2.4L and did 26.4 mpg round trip. Thats hitting 100 plus on some of the two lane blacktop passing other cars. Fun to drive good for a weekend away. Thoughtfull packing by my wife let us put the top down when we got in the highcountry. It'll go to laughlin next time we go.

Young fellow driving a pretty red Astra 3dr XR with fartcan tryed to keep up, but once we passed them out of Wittman AZ it didn't take long before they were a thing of the past. Got tierd of listening to the rear end howl so I finally swapped the diff out when we got back

Well.......................... we just got back from another run to Laughlin. My wifes birthday weekend. Had a real good time. Took the Solstice again, drove the same route and clocked 28.2 mpg this time. Kept the speeds about the same but less passing all under 90mph and damn the gas mileage went up.
