Hello from Midlothian/Richmond

I just had my first 1 year maintenance--and love my car. I also went the limit on gas (345 miles) and got 43.13 MPG--most ever. I used premium all year and then was told that I could use Prime-89 octane so that's what I've been using. I'd love to hear from others in this area.

Hehe, my dad was a professional footballer and played for Hearts of Midlothian.
There is a flagstone in Edinburgh called the Heart of Midlothian, and when you walk past it, you have to spit on it.
Two completely useless pieces of information.

Recently on our Discovery/HD Theater TV channel, a piece on Edinburgh. The guide warned the viewers about walking unknowingly on that stone, pretty slippery he said.

Virginia Beach is probably the closest. None in Richmond.
