say hello to 16-17 average,
if you drive like me

what's the point in having 450 horses
if you don't run them on a regular
basis....


ORIGINAL: wadman

I run the snot out of mine every time I drive it. It gets a even 19mpg and thats with 4:10 gears. I wonder what it will be when my Hellion turbo gets installed? I guess if you are looking for mileage one should get a civic or corolla.

210-220 on 3/4 tank. I get about 17-18 mpg on mostly city driving.

I get around 260 miles a talk, I have goten 320 once. I avg 21 mpg
That doesn't make sense. At 21 MPG and a 16 gallon tank you should be getting 336 miles per tank.

I average 23 MPG and drive 90% highway, 10% city (if that).

Computer is not accurate. It's been proven a bunch of times.
