Tucson trip

Here's another reason I love my MCS/JCW. Got to go to Tucson from LA for my sister's wedding. Got in the car on Friday morning at 6, 7 1/2 hours later I was in Green Valley. Wedding was on Saturday....got in the car at 6 Sunday morning, 7hrs and 20 minutes later I was back in Santa Monica...no sweat, no drama, no tickets (though I did go XXX.xxx mph in Arizona once)....cruised at 80 most of the way, flow of traffic stuff, leaving the consistent speeding to others....my car gets about 25 mpg on the freeway at the aforementioned 80. Good enough for me....solid and dependable and lots of fun. Total of 1100 miles this trip..... And comfortable enough that after each drive I went for a run to shake out the (small) kinks....Bruce
