We get as bad as 12.5 in winter snow storms and average in the mid 13's over the whole winter here in Albany. Summer average is about 16.5 or so with as good as 18 or so on nice long highway trips. We're actually driving down to FL next Wednesday and going straight through. I'll let ya know what we can manage on that trip.
You should see it now after we had the tails and headlights tinted along w/ the factory grey grills painted gloss black...
...have to wait to put those photos up because they're part of a fund-raiser calendar that my wife is putting together.

If you're serious about getting one, you should start getting to know the crowd on that site. It's a forum, so it has it's issues like anywhere else, but for the most part they are awesome people with a lot of good info.
I'll post up more pics once I get the go-ahead from the wife...

Darton should be done making my sleeves this coming week and I still need to get the block out and shipped to them. As soon as they get it, it'll take about a week for them to install the sleeves and then prob another month or so for the machine shop to get my motor back together. Then I'll need to find time to get out there and put the bitch back in. I'm contemplating pushing it back a few weeks to a month so I'll have the funds to pick up a HyperSingle. Might as well change it while the motors out, lulz...

I have a Oldsmobile Bravada for sale 3100 or best offer. Runs excellent. its white fully loaded. Would be a nice cheap winter car to protect the cobalt from the winter roads.
