I've read the site and also wish I had the cash right now... alas, perhaps in the future. I see where it talks about possible mileage results but I missed the part that talks cruising speeds etc. I currently have a transaxle from Darryl that allows me to cruise at 70 at about 3600 RPM and on a good day I get 19 MPG. What's driving performance like on the Zetec? My SO drives around in a Focus 5 door (its an automatic...) I'm just trying to imagine that motor pushing my 4000 pound bread box down the road. Convince me! My motor is old and tired! James |
