Well, the transmission was going out on my AE82 Corolla. I was going to replace it when I got a offer for the car too good to turn down. So now I drive this.
A '95 F150, reg. cap, short bed, 4.9 straight 6 4 spd auto. My grandfather owned it and took good care of it, but is too elderly to drive now and gave it too me. Right now I get around 20mpg hw with windows down (A/C dosn't work yet), and 12's in town.
My plans are a front air dam, smaller mirrors, lower it a bit (body lower and Ford Lighting springs), and electric fans. It already has a 3.08 rear end in it, which I think is the highest gearing available for this truck. It's MAP and OBD-1 so I can't really tune it. It's also going to be getting a mild exhaust, so that might also help with the MPG.
My first and only mod (as of now) was putting a couple of filters right on the throttle body in hopes of getting warmer air into the engine.
