Default Economy Run - Coming Soon

Just a heads up. I presented an idea on another forum and got way more interest than expected, so I'll probably be organizing an Economy Run soon.

Most likely date will be April 7th or April 21.

The general idea:
Start at MIDNIGHT
Fill up
Drive 90 miles to a destination within 3 hours
Drive 90 miles back to starting point within 3 hours
Fill up
Go get some breakfast!

Winner will be determined as we used to do the TR challenge: Best percentage improvement over EPA highway mileage.

If you're interested, post here and I'll be sure to keep you in the loop.
