Post Road Trip Observations

Just finished a road trip from Los Angeles to Illinois and back in my 2002 C2
Total travel time 77.5 hours
Distance covered 4848
av speed 65.1
fuel consumption 24.7
Some observations-
PCM is Great! The computer got me back on the route more than one time in rural areas where the roads don't appear,
Rain Sensor wipers work flawlessly (2 days of driving in rain and snow)
Rear Window wiper is grear foe snow removal
Seat heaters are cozy.
Seating is great, didn't feel tired even after 5-8 hours of drive time
The car now has just short of 7,000 miles and it's time to add some oil for the first time. I'am now two bars above the min mark on the oil level computer.
All in all a GREAT CAR
Off to The Porsche Driving Experience in Sebring next week

Snow in Southern Wyoming, Northern Utah thru the mountain passes traveling back to CA Oct 1st & 2nd
and also almost consistant rain from Wyoming to Vegas. Needless to say the Rain Sensor wipers worked flawlessly and are one of the best options that I got on the car and would highly recomend them to anyone optioning a car for delivery.
Set them and forget them...
