• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Running ECO Mode - my MPG results.

    Running ECO Mode - my MPG results.

    Agree with the annoying instructions but I shift by sound so no biggie. From time to time I do look down to see what gear I am in, and that green arrow seems to be there, but at my age you just learn to adapt. Willie

    Running ECO Mode - my MPG results.

    1. how aggressively do you accelerate between shift points? Shift probably around 4500 in general. When I need the acceleration like getting on the highway not afraid of the throttle so 5500 to 6000 would not be uncommon On town streets I do not accelerate heavily at lights or stop signs. Not...

    Running ECO Mode - my MPG results.

    While it Vermont, I asked BLUEKNIGHT911 what his MPG was, quoting me 41mpg. Since we have almost equivalent Spyders I told him I usually get 31 to 33 MPG. He told me to try ECO mode, which has never been on since I purchased my RT. Being a retired accountant, our profession involved recording...

Still wear a helmet at all times. At first I wore the protective gear, but never gonna low side or high side the...
