yea a scangauge is def on my list of things to get, before I start any aeromods, along with an e-fan conversion.
I think I put just over 14 gallons in on the last fill up. before that was almost a complete fullup as I was trying to see what I can get from a tank in all city driving.
its so freaking hard to hypermile with an auto...
I dont want to throw it in N every time I come to a stop because of the damage Ive read it can cause to the trans. and keeping the RPM's below 3k under accel means the truck crawls up to speed, which means I only do this if there is no traffic behind me... unless I can get behind a semi if at a light.
JJackstone, thanks
Ive really been trying to change my driving habits, and its paying off better than I expected. its so funny though, mention anything about hypermiling and aeromoding on a ranger forums and they go all ape**** about it. of course, now that gas has climbed above $3.00g many more of them are interested
nicely done on your truck, the manual trans makes a HUGE difference. much easier to control both accel and decel. I bet if you throw a couple of basic aermods (bellypan and lower airdam) you could push that number up close to the 500pt mark.
