Just a quick note from Edmonton on my return back from Saskatchewan.
Saturday, I put on about 750 km, going between Wadena SK, and Roblin, MB with various loops in and around places in between. Managed a 2.7 L/100 km overall, which includes the return trip from MB in a strong headwind. More to the point, the car showed itself to be capable of 2.1 L/100 km. Again, the only modification to the car is the narrower tires/wheels.
Once I’m back in Abbotsford, I’ll do a proper recap of some of the trips with specific mileage reports. I am expecting to stop at smartieparts in Westbank to get a cruise control installed… which I am pretty sure would have helped me yield a 2.0 L/100 km on some trips.
