I'm luvin' these wheel covers! I'll see how this current tank goes...and if it's proportionally better, then I'm definitely keeping these rims on the car next spring! (Do you know anybody who wants to buy some 15" alloy rims?)
Nice mod Neil! Big Dave's lucky you didn't have the mods in place for your first round tank...your latest tank would have topped his adjusted mpg by .53 mpg and put you in the second round!
