i have noticed the same about the gas hand. i just keep an eye on my milage. i started a post to see what everyone is getting. someone said his go better with 300 and something miles onit, god i hope so. that would be nice.

 

My neighbor bought one and he said he likes it a lot better than his prarie because without all those shrouds its a lot easier to clean. And the trails aroudn here those shrouds dont really help that much.
