    I picked up my new clasic silver package 2 on Tues night. So far I am thorougly impressed! I made the 140 mi round trip to work yesterday and was at 45.3 mpg that was about 80% highway. So I look for that to improve as I learn to drive it. It really takes some getting used to. Kind of wired when you are in stop and go traffic and it cuts off. At first you think it just stalled but then you smile as you realize "hummm Al the other poor bas...0. Around me are wasting has. Pretty cool too how you can pull into the neighborhood and drive only on the batteries for a mile or so. I will post pic latter. Back to work
