    Baja only makes V6 double cabs. San Antonio makes all configurations.

    Just a side note ...... my sticker stated I should be getting 20 mpg combined ... 18 mpg in the city ... 23 mpg on the highway.

    I am getting roughly 16.8 mpg manual calculation and very close with the computer. Almost 95% highway driving at 75 mph ... over 3200 miles already.

    I was just wondering if the baja vehicles were getting the same or better?

    The different plants will not change mpg. Your foot is heavy at 75mph. Drive at 60 with cruise control and you will get 26mpg

    You are absolutely right ... I should have tried that to see if that makes a difference. I am in Texas ...driving at 75 mph on the interstate is granny speeds as everyone blurs by me. I just assumed that 75 mph should be the base speed. Many tollways have RAISED their speeds with one here in the DFW area at 85 mph. I will try for a few days at 60 mph and see how much change there is. Hopefully I won't get a ticket for going so slow. If there is a big change then I will just have to be happy with the mileage I get!

    Besides it not being a truck, what didn't you like about the WRX? I've always liked those but it sucks Subaru ditched the hatch.

    I have a '14 WRX hatch I'm selling to get back into a Tacoma.

    Two big reasons:

    1. It's not a truck. I really miss the utility I had with my old Tacoma.
    2. I have a company car I drive like a maniac every day (it has fancy lights and sirens). The appeal of the WRX has been mostly lost as a result.
