I think there is only GS version in USA that has a rear wiper.<P>Here in Canada, both RS and GS have the reare wiper.

I've been getting about 35 mpg, and that's with the AC on all the time.

Your brake light is on? I don't know if it's the same problem, but mine got real loose after I had it for about 3 months. The light would flicker on and off when I went over bumps.<BR>If you pull off the console between the seats there's a nut you can tighten to stifen up your brake, don't make it too tight though.
