That was the first thing I checked. I was hoping that's what it was, but it wasn't. I also checked the fuel lines under the hood as well as the injectors . I bought a nice jack and some jack stands today so I can finally get under the car soon. I just honestly don't see how it's possible for this car to suck this much gas. My dad's 454 Chevy motor home gets the same mpg as I do, and he tows a boat with it!!

Have you decided what kind of tires you'll run?
What Is DOA? I am running 225/55R16 Eagle GT'S at 40PSI right now. They only have about 4k miles on them, so I'll be keeping them until they wear out.
