That's what I was thinking. I'm sure your yard has way more fox cars then the ones up here!

Alright, got back yesterday morning. Car did great, overall averaged 18Mpg, but individual trips saw up to 22(When I was paying attention) Things that hurt my mileage: Using a full tank driving around in Vegas( valley is too big!), and a 75Mph(Cali Freeways!) steady cruise both ways, plus mountains. I have no doubt that had I been driving slower and across plains I would have seen 25 easy. Met up with Ed, checked out a junkyard with more birds then I've seen in two years! Had a good time, and snapped some pictures of the new paintjob! ok, it's only primer, but it's definitely a step.
  Thanks again for the good time man!

Trust me, when you try to get underneath it, it's low enough. Not sure why it looks so tall, I know I need more sidewall on those tires though.
