RE: horrilbe gas
dosnt sound right
$15 gets me under 100 miles but thats usually no more than 5.6 gallons @ $2.90~ a gallon
5.6 gallons isnt even half a tank but my sending unit is fishy so i never fill up all the way. less gas wasted, less weight, and easier to keep track of.
if u got poor mileage i suggest NOT filling up all the way. i never go more than 6 gallons and with todays prices thats about $15-20 anyway so its a good amount and should last u atleast half the week...
i have a lead foot. i drive my moms bimmer and i get like 15 mpg whereas when she drives she gets 25mpg. just a little comparison [8D]
i drive my stang HARD and i manage anywhere from 12-18 mpg.. usually about 16
