Well its more than just curiosity, I am getting about 21 mpg's when driving primarily with the top down. That seems really loooooow. I'm just trying to eliminate potential issues.

But, as everyone has accurately pointed out, who cares? I'm driving around with the top down in the beautiful North Carolina weather. :)[/quote]

You are lucky. We just drove through NC last weekend on our way home from Florida. We had the sunroof open that whole stretch.

With my '06, five speed, I get between 28 and 32 mpg on staight highway runs with top down.

...now when I get into those curvey roads in the NC mountains, mileage does tend to fall off somewhat. ;) :D BRBS. Can't wait. X(
