Re: (ET) mileage

[Dean Stuckmann <dstuck lakefield net>]

Some years back I used my e-15 as a mobility scooter at the local air show 
since I was laid up with a broken ankle. My brother took the ET out there 
on his truck and left me to be. 

I road around the airport for an hour or two and then decided to drive it 
home instead of contacting my brother for a pickup. It was a 12 mile trip 
on top of the cruising at the airport. Made it home with no issue.  Of 
course, everyone thought I was nuts....

I don't know about  you guys, but my et seems to draw quite a bit more 
juice in 7th than it does in 6th and the speed difference is not that 
great.
