I love it!!!!Traded in my FJ Cruiser 2007 with 79,000 miles for a 2007 Mini with 8,050 miles and loving every minute. Live up in the mountains of Colorado and my wife and I loved the trip up. She named the car Tator Tot, I don't know. Look forward to seeing everyone at Mini's in the Mountains at Copper Mountain.

The Kool-Aid was for sharing? Oh-oh. Nobody told me. I was thirsty. I guess I gotta make some more.

There's something about those mountains that enhances fuel mileage. I tore around Colorado mountain twisties in my 07 MCS and got 40 mpg
