October 13, 2007: 1st tank of gas!
Filled up Saturday with the first tank of gas...271 miles, 12.082 gallons...works out to 22.4 mpg. Not bad for the first tank...but I'm taking it cool as it's still getting used to running. I can tell it's freeing up; it just sound looser and freer. I've got a better feel for how the inside mirror switches between daylight and night operation. It just isn't as dark as a manual mirror and switches back and forth at night when it's dark behind the car...interesting. I've noticed that all the wheels seem to have streaks on them...it appears to be brake dust...LOTS of it. If anyone reading this knows what's up, I'd appreciate a reply (I'll check VWVortex). We're also getting used to the nav system...actually making it do what we want
