Nice! Digging the exterior chrome. How about some pictures of the interior?

Is the chrome metal or just shiny plastic?

Thanks everyone for the congrats . Will post some interior shots soon.

Made my first tank refill today and averaged 26.06 mpg (OBC stated 25.9). About 75/25 freeway and city driving split. I'm pleased with this being the first tank.

I think it looks more like the Captain's Yacht than the Shuttlecraft
