So mpg report...

Fill up #1: 294.9 miles / 11.184 gallons = 26.37mpg. Approx. average speed 75mph (its a guess), this was on gas that was about 3 months old. From Omaha to Davenport, IA where I filled up.

Fill up #2: 326.8 miles / 11.212 gallons = 29.15mpg. Approx. average speed 75mph (its a guess), 93 octane. Davenport to meet to pizza palace to Davenport where I filled up again.

Fillup #3: 302.1 miles / 10.991 gallons = 27.49mpg. Approx. average speed 75mph (its a guess), also 93 octane. Davenport to Omaha. About 5 miles of intown Monday and Tuesday.

I guess thats not to bad.

he's talking out of his ass. he doesn't know each tech personally. he doesn't know the past of each one and the way they think. he's just saying anything to not take blame. i would stand your ground and not lay off. if he threatens to call the police, just say "go ahead, then i can tell them how your employees stole my property off my car and how you are trying to cover it up."

I know it sounds stupid, but lawyer could always get involved. Sometimes even just a letter saying that so and so is representing you for the recent event. Have you filled a police report?

The closed back records good sound too, just not as loud...

yea the last time i used the closed back it turned out way louder.. and sounded really bad.. not sure if it was to close to the exhaust though.

Tape some old terry cloth over the mic hole, it will filter wind but let all other sounds through.

its a go pro lol the open back is for like under 100mph and the closed is for above 100 mph... so it must have been the mounting spot that caused the wind
