My 3.5 EB just passed 3K (in 6 months LOL) and I'm averaging about 16.6 with the
vast majority in town with a fair few hills. The couple of road trips I've taken I can do
20 if I restrain myself to 65-70.

Default AM auto parts

Ordered ball joint set and front rotors from AM auto parts. Was that a good idea? Read some horrible reviews.

Speedlimit where I live is 75mph.
Everybody runs faster than 75mph.
If you was gonna run 65mph you better stay in the far right hand lane.
And pay attention to how fast the vehicles come up behind you.

Sometimes things besides getting the best fuel milage might be more improtant.
Like speeding up a little.

Cardboard, if you knew who you were talking to you would have saved your breath.
I thought this thread was about mileage?
BTW, I don't recall saying I was clogging up the 'fast lane'. I'm actually
smarter than I look.

When I said something about using lucas fuel additive. It also lubricates the injectors and helps with the gas and also helps with the fuel milage.
