Roadtrip

[Silverghost]

Went on a roadtrip from Toronto to Columbus a couple of weekends ago. What a blast (in more ways than one).
A mix of driving speeds and the occssional aggressive driving but all in Smart mode.
The return trip I managed an average of 9.0 liters per 100 km.
I am really pleased with that.
What roadtrip returns have you had?

2019 Stinger GT limited Ghost Grey
Went on a six week road trip from Summerland BC to Cornerbrook Newfoundland. Returned down through the central states. Over 12k kms with absolutely no issues. Had the car just over a year now and have just over 40k km on it. Loved every km. Not sure why my member flag show the US flag, oh well.

9.0 liters per 100 km

~26 mpg in "Freedom Units"

Not bad I've been lucky enough to get up to 28 mpg (8.4 L/100km) on my recent road trips. Usually cruising in comfort mode.

Took a road trip into Alberta and back this weekend on a non-divided highway. Got 9.0 L/100km into headwinds each way. That was in Custom mode (mostly Sport settings) and cruise set at 118 kph.

Have seen as good as 7.8 L/100km cruising on divided highway with a tailwind.

Woah! Looks like a double decker spaceship!

What type of box system is that? Any wind noise?

 

[YOWStinger]

No wind noise, it's an old Thule 1600 I think, I've had it for at least 10 years or so.

In Penticton right now, after driving here from Saskaton. Managed to make it through the Rockies the day before the TransCanada was closed at Revelstoke due to flooding Got 8.8L/100km at an average of about 98kph according to the DIC. I’m OK with that.

Hmmm Edmonton and Winnipeg. Were you on some sort of punishment run or something.
