I drove from MD to NC and back over the last few days and my avg MPG on the way down with 1 stop and 295 miles was 26.1. A slightly lower (most likely due to the rain) 25.7 on the return trip. My average speed was most likely between 60-65 (I was consistently doing 5-9 over the entire trip but hwy 29 have lot of lights and slow spots) and had 3-4 short full throttle stints on each trip.
Under light throttle while accelerating was first time I really noticed the 2-3rd throttle blip then drop. It is very strange and irritating, I hope the future tune alleviates that.
A couple positive and negatives:
-I appreciate the triple window sprayer and downshifting cruise control during steep downhills.
-I already started to hear very minor creaks (sounds like it's coming from the passenger dash corner area.)
-I actually had to slam on the brakes HARD. I was heading N on 29 and a truck pulled out straight into the left lane with me about 90 yards behind him. Under emergency braking the car stops fine (not great) but has a very spongy feel. Not sure if this is necessarily bad but it is something I am not used to.
My FFS sighting was a blue brother between Lynchburg and Charlottesville VA (just north of Faber) around 2:00pm today. Looked sharp.
