I make a city-hwy trip 4 of 5 days that's 15 miles. I'd prefer 15-20 mpg, over 10-15. Before "things started to go wrong," the '01 4x4 5.4 got 16+ hwy at 65. I'D prefer +1 mpg, not -1. But that's me... old vet, limited income. "YMMV," is very well put. I've done a few things to help.
Look at the extra annual gas expense of 350.HP and 4.10 gears, versus 265 and an effective, 3.01. I'd have to give up "beer." And then, there's the air pollution... and for what?!? Just go burn a tire in your backyard every weekend.
I would suggest to you, gently, that you've got the wrong truck. There are vastly better choices out there if fuel economy is the priority.
I will be the last man burning fossil fuels. The powers that be can ram their electric cars. Go ahead and raise your penalties and we shall see who is stronger.
Went to a car show tonight at the new Garage Grill location. Talked to the manager pretty extensively about the cars the owner owns. Didn't realize the owner was the guy with the Ferrari out front either, but anyway... this guy owns Paul Walkers Saleen S7 and it will be in the next rotation of cars on display. This place it badass!
Hmmm... looks like it's technically Draper, UT. But they do border each other, lol. I don't know exactly where one starts/ends, etc. Hence the mixup.
Had a couple people ask where my car was at. Oh well. Got new gaskets on the way... probably tear it apart tomorrow. My friend in PA said he'll machine them for me if needed, but he thinks the PermaDry gaskets will fit as is
