I've been waiting for great weather to take the drive from Spokane to Seattle and I got it yesterday. Brought out my fairly new acquisition (75 914 1.8) and it drove surprisingly nice! The drive is about 4 hours. I was surprised I had pretty good pep going up the mountain passes in 5th. I haven't re-filled the gas tank, but I used less than 3/4 of a tank of gas so I got very good mileage (I recall the distance is about 260 miles). I was averaging 85-90 at about 3600 rpm for a while until I saw some Hwy patrol. Top off all the way!
Got to Seattle last nite and saw a pretty looking black teener on ramp to I-5 downtown. It was an earlier model, with chrome bumper and nice looking/sounding twin exhaust tips out the back. Whoever it was, was pushing it nicely! |
