Well, we took our first road trip in the 05. I live in West Palm Beach, FL and we drove it to New Brighton, PA (NW of Pittsburgh about 1 hr). There's about 3800 miles on her now. I had the oil changed up there on Friday (2800 miles). The trip is a little over 1100 miles, which was done in 16 hours. Set the cruize control for most of the trip (85mph). The average MPG didn't get over 21 mpg. I was hoping to see that posted "25 mpg." Rides great for the long haul and was fun. My only complaint is when having my left hand on the steering wheel, my elbow sits in the hole of the arm rest-uncomfortably. Not much room for my 5yr old boy, though he slept most of the time-drove through the night.
We took I95 up to 26, 77, then 79. I love some of the roads up there (winding roads). So...If you saw a Legend Lime GT either Wednesday/Thursday or Sunday/Monday, it was most likely us!

That's a long hard run....hope you had fun. So far, I have only seen one '05 on the road, a v-6 wb and one performance white in a driveway. I am on the road almost daily

I saw a Legend Lime one in the Toledo, Ohio area on my way back from Chicago Saturday. It was driving in the lane next to us for a while. I also saw a black one going the opposite way. This was on the Ohio Turnpike.

Since we are on the subject of the Limes, here is a pic to compare the color with my Electric Green GT if any one cares. I'm a hard core green car guy but I think I'm going to order a white one. :scratch:
