Ha.. I drove to Minot ND over the weekend. I didn't get much "dirt" on my RX-8.. but the bugs.. the nose of the RX-8 looked like I was starting an insect collection. Yellow moths, white moths, bees, flys, other bugs I can't describe.. all very flat.. (did I mention the speed limit on 94 in ND is "75"?) :D

papajoey79, at least you can drive across the border and get "real" fuel.

On the way to Minot, took me 3 fills ups.. on the way home only took 2. I am now completely convinced that 10% Ethanol fuel is the cause of everyone's MPG on the RX-8 suck.

Once I got the 10% Ethanol out of my tank I got _23_ MPG at 75 MPH. (ok, I might have been going a little faster then that...) :D W/ the E10, the most I've ever had is 20 MPG...

I'm not sure what the price of fuel is around here.. but almost the whole trip it was between 2.69 and 2.89 a gallon for 91+ Octane.

It allows your fog lights to be on w/o the headlights.

Unfortunatly, MN law says to have the foglights on, you must also have your headlights on or you could get a ticket.

Basically the "re-wire" is pretty simple.. (I'm not really sure a "re-wire" is needed.. often times you just pull out a relay and remove/bend one of the tabs and it will function the way you want.)
