Default RE: Gears and mpg

ORIGINAL: HOLLYWOOD99

Any gear other than 3.27's FTW, and i DO NOT even wanna think about the cost of premium going up....

Hell, i will run my car on straight ethanol if it gets around 3.75 a gallon! Either that or fly my *** overther and jack some crude and refine that $hit!
[/align][/align]Ethanol has 20% to 30% less energy per gallon than gasoline. so you'll need 25% to 40% more of it to go a mile vs. gasoline--all other things being equal. So if gas is $3.75 per gallon ethanol would have to be around $2.80 just to break even... E-85 would be bit better, but not a whole lot...[/align]
