Default 4.10`s+gas mileage=not bad...

Everyone seems to ask about 4.10`s and gas mileage. Heres a copy of my last receipt when I filled up. I had 267 miles on my trip when I filled up at the time. Comes out to 20.26 MPG. So heres proof that 4.10`s are not as bad as most think.

to me when you buy a mustang you dont think about gas milage, and then when and if you put gears you really dont think about it if you want to save gas get a four banger. if you want fun and power get a v8
