Lightbulb Tire PSI does make a difference...

Just wanted to throw something out at all of you..Recently came back from surf fishing, where we normally drop our tire psi down to accomodate sandy terrian. Was running my front tires at 35 psi and rears at 30 psi, after I got back, gas mileage was terrible. Aired the front ones back up to 40 psi and the rear at 32 psi, my mileage returned back to an acceptable (15-15.9 mpg). Just goes to show you what a difference a little tire pressure can do for gas mileage...
