    true but unfortunately the winters been pretty mild and the trails have been
    a bit muddy so (most) everybody tries to say off of them to keep then in
    good shape.
    if it's any constellation 99% of the bikes where Mountain bikes (of some
    kind) and most of the riding was up hill....

    Welcome to the group. We all a bunch of collective a-holes with a big
    superiority complex, so if anyone seems like a total jerkoff, don't take it
    personally. Some of us have motobikes, too, so feel free to discuss.

    One is a big, blue and white, the other brown then there is the green
    Outback with the 4 banger boxer and finally the latest beige Liberty with
    the 4 banger turbo diesel that almost matches the torque of my '95 Chevy 454
    with nearly three times the fuel economy. And they all carry a minimum of
    four mountain bikes.......some just better than others

    So far with combined city/hgwy driving I'm averaging close to 24 mpg but
    only have 4000 miles on the engine, hardly broken in. Others driving this
    vehicle claim mpg in the low 30's ???? A friend has the v6 gasser Liberty
    and get's about 13-17. I usually get about 10 mpg with the 454 (long bed
    extended cab with shell) and the other chevy blazer (full size '83) with the
    upgraded 400 cid gets about 9, if I'm lucky. The Sube gets anywhere from 17
    to 33 depending on if the bikes are on top, speed and where I'm at. Driving
    the Sube from T-ride over to Angel Fire NM I got 33 with skis on top using
    85 octane fuel....go figure. Rattles like crazy here in PHX using 87
    octane.

    too bad diesel prices started to exceed regular gas prices right at the time
    I bought the Jeep :-(

    More info than asked for......

    The Liberty sounds good. Your Subaru probably knocks on 87 octane in
    Phoenix because of the altitude and heat. High alt, and cold means very
    little knock in a normally aspirated engine. They sell us cheaper (low
    octane) gas here in Colorado, but charge us more. :-P
    ('Course a lot of that is tax)
