It won`t be that bad. I still average 20 mpg with mine. The lowest I ever got was 18 mpg.

I love the "if you are worried about gas you shouldn't of gotten a V8" crowd. You can still get respectable gas mileage with a light right foot, and going a lower gear ratio will make your mileage worse. Maybe not by much but 1-2mpg adds up over time at the pump.
