Hi All:
I drove the Accord to Dearborn to pick up and drive for the third and final installment, 12 Focus SFE.
46.2 mpg to Dearborn - a 5 to 10 mph headwind all the way in 32 to 44 degrees F and back down to 37 degrees as I pulled into Motor City Solutions (the press fleet handlers office). Basic and intermediate... Almost ;) One .9 mile FAS when coming to a stop at a rest area in MI somewhere?
The old girl was running a bit higher speeds as it did not stop snowing at home until almost 10:30 AM and I had to run some local errands... In any case, do not screw with an Accord to put it lightly!
