I have become a MPG freak, and I am trying numerous driving habit changes to see how it affects my Mileage. Here is some data for everybody to think about
2003 Baja Automatic
70 MPH cruise = 24 MPG
65 MPH cruise = 26 MPG
60 MPH cruise = 28-29 MPG
55 MPH cruise = 33.5 MPG!
Too bad I can't drive 55! But the speed limits here are 60, so I have backed down to that. Given the fact that I drive 60 miles a day, for let's say 250 days a year - I should save $250 for the year.
Now, I did an experiment with the tailgate up and down while I was typically driving 70 with NO effect. Has anybody with a Baja tried similar tailgate trials? What were your results?
Thanks
