Just don't drive keep it in the driveway for looks or buy a H3

 

don't do it, get an old Geo Metro.


For mileage tips, the big problems are weight and aerodynamics (plus full time 4wd, etc.). For aerodynamics, take off the crossbars on the top of the truck, which will reduce noise levels at highways speeds and buy you a boost in MPG. For weight, take it easy on the gas and put the weight to work for you by coasting to stops rather than hot-rodding up and slamming on the brakes.

 

Not to go off in a different direction, but does anyone know how I can get a better price on a new Bentley? Get my point?[sm=pimp.gif]

 

Cold air intake, Cut out the cats and have it Dyno Tuned. My freind has a 04 Hummer he did this and gets 14.5 MPG now in city driving..I get 12/13 ish with just Cold air. The Dyno tuning turns off the error light from the Cats being gone, and it is tuned for performance/shifting, etc..

 

While I agree with you there to some extent CDI, you're going to have to put on A LOT of miles on that vehicle before you have paid for the mods by saving gas ... to me it doesn't seem worth it.
And 12/13 with CAI? I get that stock thank you very much :-)

 

Easy. Install a Prince propane system and you gettwice the mileage for your money !
At least we do in Skandinavia...

Your mileage will improve. I'm up to 11.2 right now. When I pulled out of the dealership I was gettin 6..hahaha... but it's much better now.

 

6?

That must have FREAKED you out a little!!!!

 

I've recently been trying different brands of fuel. First tank was from Sam's club....with an easy foot, I could get over 13 and up to 13.9. Second tank, Shell and I'm down, ranging from 11.8 to 12.9. Today I'll fuel with BP and see how it goes.

Im fuel conscience as well, and I know what I got into when I picked my h2 up.

Before my transfer case started acting up, I was doing just over 11 average and around 16-18 on the highway.


Its not about totally ignoring fuel economy with the hater line "If you can afford an H2, you can afford the gas" its about making sure everything is running at peak efficiency.
