How the **** can you drive 55 on the highway? You would be killed here. I cruise at 80, and occasionally get passed.

I seriously hate *******s that drive 10 mph under the speed limit, let alone 20.. I would lose it lol

Went on an anniversary trip/vacation to South Padre Island this weekend. I had not paid attention to how long it had been since I last had gotten gas. The light came on and I happened to be very close to a Buc-Ee's (those in TX know what I'm talking about) and stopped there and looked at the miles:

This is on a 2013 2wd Plat w/ 3.31's, 26 gallon tank, MPT Perf-Race Tune. Most highways down this way are 75mph speed limit. As you can see I averaged less than that for the trip but this was more than half the trip there, all the driving around, and then almost the whole way home too. Not bad

Hand calculated mileage came to 21 almost exactly. It used right at 23.888 gallons to fill up so the calculation was a bit off.

I start off doing pretty well once I fill up. Cruising around making that green bar stay high. Then after about 10 minutes and everyone passing me I go back to 75-80 and deal with it. I get like 380 miles to a tank.

I didn't get a picture of it but I did have 527mi on my last tank. Granted I was drafting at 65 mph 3/4 the time and the other 1/4 was 55mph county highways. I have a 14 STX 5.0 with 3.31 rear end
