.Just finished a 1000 mile road trip in our 2011 V Wagon. 500 out and 500 back with a day in between with family.
I was rocking and rolling with the speed limits in OK and TX and cruising at 77 to 84 for the drive down. Averaged 17.5-18.5 MPG. That was a little lower than I expected...

I'm a week late in wishing a Happy 12th birthday to Speed Wagon. A little over 55k miles now and still going strong. I think I'll hang on to her for a while longer!
I don't have a Blackwing. I do have a V2 Wagon with a manual transmission and that was what I wanted in a practical, go fast vehicle. Mothing more practical than a wagon with a supercharged V8! I enjoy reading the Blackwing news here but I'll probably not buy one as I don't plan to sell my...
