Fill up Ha I wish. I pump 4 gal and go till it runs out, which is always at least 100 miles. depending on what I'm up to I may put more in I'll be using up the last of 7 gal today, I'm at 194 miles so far thats 27.71 MPG. Driving technique..... If its flat or downhill or there is a stoplight/sign ahead I accelerate for about 60 ft in 2nd gear push in the clutch and kill the motor. I am worse than eboneezer scrooge when it comes to gas lol.


Now enough with the highjacking.

The truck in the pic, I assume just for generic reference?

what are you using the truck for? whats it hauling or pulling? that auto is going to hurt OverDrive and preferrably a manual is a necessity for FE.

We cant understand non-V8 engines because that ain't whut NASCAR uses...
Not this American.
