Too Dumb to Shift
Headed north this morning I downshifted to 4th fear as I went through the 167 and I-405 interchange just south of Seattle. 50 miles later I got off of freeway for gas. As I downshifted to a stop, I only had three gears to drop down...ooops, 50 miles without shifting back to 5th. Didn't really notice any loss of power or problems. I was curious about my MPG...got 37.5 MPG for that leg. Later, I gassed up again after using 5th gear and got almost 43 MPG. What a great ride!
