2012 Imppy LT
Posted: Sat Sep 21, 2013 12:47 pm
I've been inactive here for a while, but after reading about BP's new 'Stang, I felt it was time to return.
Back in Jan, my old '05 Imppy, with 137k, was traded in, for a used, 2012 Imppy, LT. Like, BPs Stang, this was a 'fleet' vehicle, in service for a little over 13 months, and showing 19k on the clock. (Now with 37k) It too, was from the south -Alabama.
I test drove this for about an hour, had it up on a lift at the dealership, and could find nothing really wrong, outside of a cigarette burn on the pass seat,and some scratches on the back door, inside panels - probably from suit cases, in and out.
Now, the 3.6 VVT, DI\6spd, is just awesome. 300hp. Put your foot in it, and ya had better have both hands on the wheel. Yet, 25.5 - 27mpg. Best, was a trip to Cedar PT, 31.2mpg
A dark side, this engine will consume a quart of Mobile1, in 3500 miles. Internet research, says this is 'normal'... Well, at least, she holds 6 quarts.
Looking for a Wednesday night, to take it to Thompson.
BP - Another Cheeseburger run?
