  1. Reference EVO Fuel Consumption EPA fuel economy (mpg) 19 City 25 Highway Edmunds observed (mpg) 20.5 Fuel tank capacity (U.S. gal.) 14 STI Fuel Consumption EPA fuel economy (mpg) 18 City 24 Highway Edmunds observed (mpg) 18.4 Fuel tank capacity (U.S. gal.) 15.9
  2. Targus Truss = WINNING.
  3. Are you seriously quoting MPG figures ? Subaru's MPG figures are atrocious....and any article will put the nod to the EVO for MPG, not that anyone gives a shit cross shopping those 2 cars.
  4. Loving the camera on this phone as well! Much better than the crap in th D1/D2/Dx ect.
  5. Gotta love easy power out of the LS1....
  6. 1. Put engine in car. 2. Make it Run. 3. Research power adders.
  7. Great another Stock VS Modified car discussion. I'm surprised nobody said "With a flash the EVO WOULD RAPE THE GT". But yeah, I'd go GT-R over that overpriced heap anyday.
  8. Yeah, mine isn't nearly that bad, maybe you got a dud ? Hell, with occasional use, I can charge it one night and skip a night....
  9. I'm willing to concede something for this type of bandwidth that is portable. Allegedly, 2.3 will bring some additional battery tweaks. Hell, when the first roms are available they will bring improvements with them as well.
  10. Like most devices, it is usage dependent. The harder you hit the 4g radio the the faster it will chew through battery. If you just browse a few sites and play a few games, it's an all-day phone. If you pulled down 3GB+ of data in 1 day Like I did yesterday, it will DESTROY IT. Think of it as toting around a cable modem...
  11. Update: Rooted (new with S off) so it's fully unlocked and ready to rock. Why would you want to? As it turns out in back to back tests conducted today, Verizon limits the wireless tethering app to around 3mb. If you root it, you can install wireless tether and average 16mb down and 4-5 up via wireless. I'm typing this now from a usb tethered connection to my thunderbolt on my main PC. Downloading a movie @ 15.5mb while on CR as well. It can quite literally replace your home internet connection. What's next ? Find a way of teaming NIC teaming so I can have a 30Mb+ down when I'm at home. Get one, and get one now... EDIT: Did some testing with a very thorough speed test site I highly recommend: http://www.ispgeeks.com/wild/modules.php?name=CapacityTest It takes a while but produces excellent and accurate resulsts (it can also measure large 100mb connections fyi) http://www.columbusht.com/dump//uploads/thunderbolt.JPG
  12. You could out JOG an IS250...slow horrible pieces of crap.
  13. One of the worst cars I ever drove was a Gran AM GP whatever with the V8 & 4 speed fwd lolzzzzzzz
  14. Sounds like a slipping clutch, I'm not sure if EVO's eventually got dual mass flywheels, but I've had the same symptom out of a defective dual mass flywheel.
