currently it resides in steamboat springs, nah, it doesn't idle high for nearly as long as my accord (94 ex, 33mpg highway) however, you can distinctly smell the smell of very rich gas when it first starts up. VERY rich. now is that the altitude? the cold? or just something that ill have to live with till my mech checks it out. All in all though, for the 600$ i paid for it, im not too sad
