Setting alarms and fuel

Set off car alarms pulling unto shell!
268.2 miles
$35.30
8.697 gallons


Spyder trip so far... my MPG went down a bit. I suspect the crappy fuel that California gets is the reason. I detect detonation at low RPM. Since I use 93 and 94 octane maybe the ECU just needs a good reset to use the 91 stuff here. So far I have spent $402.21, traveled 3298.5 miles and averaged 31.83 MPG with a Toyota 2ZZ-GE in a 2001 MR2 Spyder. I honestly stuck the speedo at 70 all the way down I5.

As I slowed to turn it at the proper store I caught a look of a CHP officer sitting in his car with his head back and mouth open. Asleep. It was funny. Plus I was lucky.
