I just filled up and got 27 driving like an absolute maniac. I'm loving it... There is a Jeep in my future for sure

The Jeep is still in the family at least. Rob, if you don't need the seats or space to haul junk around look at Miatas! Once you get past all the gay/hairdresser jokes they are really fun little go karts. Haha. And they can be had for cheap.
