First solo road trip

Friday I left and drove from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia to visit my family out there. It was my first road trip by myself with this car and I must say the ride comfort was much nicer than my Altima was in regards to the seat. The best mpg's I got was 27.7 which isn't bad I think for the weight of the car itself, the terrain, and the speed I was traveling at. My Altima 3.5 was able to get 30 mpg's during the same trip. The only thing I didn't care for was the stock tires as im sure a lot of tou may know. On certain parts of the PA turnpike they were humming so loud I couldn't believe it, in addition to the vibration. Thats the only thing I'm looking forward to changing when the time comes with Michelin's, Continental's, or Pirelli tires. Other than that I didn't want the drive to end. Even driving into the night made me enjoy the car so much more. Anyone else dig the center stack when it's lit up at night?
