...it has served me perfectly without a single problem for 4 years. I used it on trips also, and I recorded 34 mpg most of the time, but got 37 a few times as well. A 2-stroke would have a much different story I think. From what I have investigated, a 2-stroke will get 25-ish mpg, but that mpg includes consuming oil with the gas, which can get pretty expensive. Also, if you search y o u t u b e for saab 2-stroke and how to drive them on the road, you will find that you can't just cruise on the highway as you would by setting the cruise control. You have to accelerate and then back off repeatedly in order to not starve the 3-banger of oil.
Just an FYI....
