Solar in Central Oregon.

Greetings. Just found this forum a couple days ago when someone posted a link on a Suzuki Swift site.

I've been interested in alternative energy and energy efficiency for many years. My home is off grid powered by photovoltaic modules and a battery/inverter system. Since I was old enough to drive, motorcycles and scooters have been my main mode of transport. 4 wheels are necessary in the ice and snow of Central Oregon during the winter so I bought a Suzuki Swift to replace my sick Toyota Pickup. My most efficient commute vehicle is a gas engine powered bicycle that gets about 120 mpg.

Anyway my Swift seems to get about 50 mpg on the highway and 40 mpg around town. I'm going through the articles and posts looking for ways to improve the mileage.
