I've never gotten more than 27 unless it was downhill and/or a tailwind. It depends a LOT on your speed, however. So as my foot (and everything else) has gotten heavier, my mileage has gone slowly down over the years. Last summer, however, I had to finish a couple hundred mile trip on a bad tire. I slowed down to 50-55 and saw the mileage come back up to 27, a figure (and an average speed) I had not seen in years. How fast were you driving when you got 30-34? -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
