New car in the Garage

[JJEH]

Guys,

we have a new car in our Garage. Jess bought a 2010 Fusion S.

We got it yesterday and drove all the way from Bremerhaven to Stuttgart (almost 500mls).

The avg. MPG was 31.5 and after we arrived we still had a 1/4 left in the fuel tank.

I know, normally we don't care about MPG... but sind I'm a Daddy I do care... at least for the daily driver LOL

Since Jess' is so happy with it I got the OFFICIAL "Go" for a Camaro next year!!!

How awesome is that...

And the Fusion won't be in stock configuration for long time.

Here a picture:

Looks like we gonna have a lot of fun with our Fusion...

Nice score J &amp; J! Have fun. What she do on the autobahn? <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif

Thanks' fellas <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

The color is really nice, indeed.

Sam, we did 65mph max. because of the road conditions. Also we treat the engine &quot;careful&quot; for the first 500-1000mls...

That's great advice anywhere!.
Twice in the past 25 years I've had someone fly by going the wrong direction in the passing lane of a 4 lane hiway while I was in the right lane!.
Left lanes are for passing!.

Congrats on the new car Jochen!.
Does the official word on next year's Camaro mean a new one...or a ZL1 maybe?.

Thank's Guys...

Traffic in Germany is always stressful. I love the speedlimit in the States... is much easier and less stressful to drive.

That would be nice... but unfortunately no.

I need the Camaro quick when we arrive the States and I also need a reliable daily driver. So I guess the best thing is to go with a 4th Gen... 2000 or so... not sure yet.

And the Budget is limited at the time...

Have still to pay for my lazy exwife <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/sick.gif

This is Jess...no I haven't got any orders yet and my branch told me I have to wait until 6 months before we leave, to find out where we are going. So, it's still up in the air, but trying to go to Fort Carson, Colorado.

Good deal Jess. Good to hear from you and congrats on the new ride!
