SUGGESTIONS? to try out or to do with the Cayenne? This will put me close to 60,000 NAKED miles!
I thought about putting the S on 70mph and filling up as I leave and at each waypoint to see if could set a record gas mileage at 20 mpg or above... but I'm skeptical that I'll stick to the plan if some kid zooms past me in his Camry (yeah yeah, I'm still the guy that posted few years back and got lambasted about how I WILL call the license plate on kids exceeding 90mph - I'll give um 80-ish if not reckless).

Know it is hard to believe it -- but the trip nav is accurate! I confirmed that these numbers are within a few tenths with my gas receipts. I'm tired got in late had to get up early.. time for bed.. I must be dreaming.. think I saw a post saying the Cayenne was awesome and the author was LTC???????????????????????
amazing what a change of application can do...

Oh my gosh... Torags, Mudman2, skl, 356 driver.. get the extra strong straight jacket out of the garage.. bring in the cardio cart with paddles... standby.. ltc about to respond to query about buying another cayenne.... stand by with 500 jewels to start the shock treatment..CLEAR
We successfully administered shock treatment.. WAIT --- he's still agitated.. let's put the outer garment straight jacket on... QUICK guys.. before he recovers from the shock... WAIT get the freakin pencil out of his mouth.. he could choke... wait he's thrashing again .. mudman2 crank it to 1000 jewels...CLEAR phew.. I think we caught him in time.. he might rationally say "no thank you" in his reply..

Has ltc solicited the assistance of some sort of airborne preditor to maybe deliver a reply ala Slim Pickens? Should I check the skies before waking out of my house - for sure. JW
