    My new company rented me a car to get to orientation. The rental is.....a Mitsubishi Shoebox...AKA a Mirage ...it's small, (how small is it? :biggrin_1square7:). It's so small, my cooler has to sit sideways in the passenger seat so I have room to steer...but it still beats the Graydog. I am averaging 38.5 mpg running 75ish mph.

    @navypoppop I ride by you weekly on the way back to Florida with rock out of anywhere Alabama. Have you tried Dobbs BBQ yet, for all the years I’ve passed by I haven’t stopped, wonder if it’s any good. The old 231 BBQ just before Dothan used to be really good, as well as the one back north of Troy.
     
    Knucklehead Thanks this.

    My guess...on his way to Indianapolis , Lenoir City , Columbus or Mechanicsburg...with Shaffer...but I could be wrong...SSB is known for the unexpected ...his exploits are always entertaining
