BEFORE my 305/55/20's went on I would get a MAX 14.6. did not matter if it was highway or city. that was max.
NOW with the level and tires I have been getting 10.8.

I spend on average 90 every 6 days.def not fun bc that does NOT fill the truck up lol.

The truck is a 2010 FX4 5.4L leveled with nitto trail grapplers. I would LOVE to find a programmer to give me 2MPG. Just to see that I could get 13mpg again(the way the truck is), I would do a backflip.

I just saw no reason to have the "hurry, go fill up before it jumps!" Attitude.

The prices around me haven't gone up, in Des Moines the 89 (e10) is 3.69/gal and the 87(pure gas I use) is 3.79/gal. They've been going up little by little, no jumps like what was indicated.

Besides, I may watch the nightly news, but I take their bs with a grain of salt. What they say and what I'm experiencing are two different things.

Also, I went to the Exxon fuel station earlier and their premium (93 pure gas) is only $3.99/gal. However the "race gas" is 110 octane, pure gas, its $12.99/gal.

At the Iowa speedway their pure methanol (racing alcohol used in drag/oval cars) is a mere $4.85/gal.

I usually put in 45.00-52.00 a week depending on the price of fuel. I drive about 30 miles a day.

I have the little 3.7 V6, I don't think they V8 does any worse on fuel usage maybe 2-4 mpg.

Having the V8 is well worth the loss in MPG.

Im jealous of most fo you guys i cant get better then 13-13.5 in my 5.0 with 3:55 gears. I spend about $50-$60 dollars ever 3-5 days. A little disapointed in the MPGS I get 14-15 in my dads 98 4.6. was expecting a little better but oh well i guess

The $15.00 fill-up was from when right before we were going on vacation and I didn't want to fill it all the way up for it to sit for 2 weeks. Other than that, I fill it up all the way.

36 gallon tank.

South Texas 3.49 per gallon. After HEB (grocery chain) gift card, 3.37. The promotonal savings is from Sept 5 - Dec 31. It's a nice promotional that the grocery chain offers.

Well, how's that 6.2L working out for you CA guys now?

My local (7-11 discount) station jumped from $4.17 to $4.39 for reg. unleaded yesterday; wonder what it will be this a.m.?

Just got back from taking my daughter to school.....overnight, it jumped to now $4.50 at the 7-11 discount station. At the Chevron and Shell stations down the street, it is $4.79.

Update: Now, some three hours later, and just back from the gym; the price at this station is now $4.65!! A .48 cent jump in about 36 hours.

If we stop accepting these high prices gas won't be so expensive I heard the other day price per barrel of oil is 88 bucks but gas is still weird how we get screwed

On the news today they said Cali gas stations raised the prices to 6.00 a gallon. I'm not sure what part of Cali, but that nuts.
