I love my Lil´ rebel. It gets great gas miliage. About 70 mpg. I do not like driving it in the wind. It feels like high winds sre picking it up off the road. It could use a little more go power when going up long hills to keep from downshifting. I haven´t had the first servicing yet, so I don´t know what the differnce in gas miliage or performance is yet. I think I should get a windshield to block the wind. Otherwise, it´s a sweet Lil´ rebel.
