I usually get about 24 - 25 on the highway, but I attribute that to
being lowered and having a bedcover. I noticed that I picked up some
MPG when I did both of those mods. It takes me about 8 - 10 hours from
chicago and it usually takes me about 3 - 4 hours to get to detroit from
here. Then again I usually cruise at about 80 mph... I usually make
the trip up stateside and the return trip through Canada, driving
through Canada is longer though because you can't go as fast, and it's
really boring.
My ex didn't like the windows down and the music up either, her hair
blew all over the place. Once she figured out that she could put her
hair in a ponytail or under a scarf thingy she was good though. Having
the sliding rear window open makes all the difference.
