Touche!

I was thinking the other day how bad it's going to be when I finally get my Mustang -- then I'll have two babies that I have to get out for a run every now and then!

If I didn't have to have a job I'd have more time to go out cruising -- retirement will be nice when it gets here many years from now!

Did you replace your gas pedal with an on/off switch? I've got a friend with a Pontiac GTP and he gets worse mileage than me when I'm towing....

That is your privelege, but I keep an Excel spreadsheet of every fillup and where and how I drove. I have the records on it. I have kept this for the last 22,000 plus miles.

9 miles to gallon, but I am not happy if my foot is not on the floor.

I've so got the low end now. :-D

After sinking my truck axle deep both front and back and getting water all the way up into the cab, i just ran 7mpg. :-D Last tank was 10, and it's going up i think. But fresh out of the lake i only ran 7mpg on the first tank. Go bad O2 sensors and who knows what else!!!

Can't bring myself to ride 65 to see what I get then, I'm sure it would be 18 - 19ish - Easy
