good point, i did not think about other peoples roads.
my drive is the same weather i go back roads or the highway
its 50 miles. caus the back road i take is right next to the highway with only 2 stops the hole way

well if i take the main way to work i have a total of 5 stops lol which isn't many... and most of the trip is on one road which heads out of town and goes from 30mph to 45 then to 55 then to 65 which is nice cause it means no real hard acceleration nice and easy... and also no major hill either... i don't have a real direct way to get to work using back roads... so it automatically adds at least 10 stops plus lots of tight corners and stuff like that so no easy way to go i wish there was cause if i could keep her at 50mph i deff could get better milage... but oh well lol we will see what happens with the mods i have planned...
