Filled up late late last night.
9 gallons in 149 miles, so about 16-17 mpg, with mixed driving and a good amount of tomfoolery. Highway patrol is pretty heavy during my commute, so i keep it a sane 70mph...also my 8500 x50 took a dump so I am nekkid.
WIth my new tires, a better detector and a different commute, I believe I can get this sucker down to 9mpg!.
I fill up once a week, if that, it cost about 2.89 at the moment for e85 in my neighborhood(aren't i lucky!) and 3.89 for premium. So I am at a wash when I drive like a total vag....the car can eat some gas tho, lol. Once you do some nasty 0-iwontsaybecauseillegal pulls, the dots start to disappear, but totally worth it!
