Perioodic how's the 4 cyl

Honestly the only reason I went with the 4 cylinder is because of the transmission. Wasn't interested in the 5 speed transmission. I had a 2015 before I bought this one, pretty much same everything except my new one has a bit more options!

I'm VERY interested to see if it escapes the problems of the 3.0 6 cyl, there's so few on the road it's hard to get straight answers. I know you'll love the mpg

Thought I'd chime in with an update. Last week 5/5 and 5/4 this week. Made about 6k for the 2 weeks. Now at home doing the 3 day R&R waiting for Tuesday to keep the train going.

Welcome to California brother!

There are some stations that might be cheaper. The gas app helps a lot.

Almost to Newton Iowa one of my favorite Walmarts My stop for the night

Is that the one with the corn field next to it?

Who am I kidding? All Iowa Walmarts have corn fields next to them.

Yep next month Halloween, the corvette gets moved from the garage to the shop for its long winter sleep, and the beater with a heater comes down to the garage.

Ok. I was called from home for a local 20 min run, she seemed annoyed that I got her to repeat it twice. Then I explained it's an hour and a half one way for me to get there...the light bulb went on...
