But Sargent ..It's true. The trip to my dealer is 70 miles one way down Rt 40 in NJ a long cruise with out many stops. Speed limit 50 Max Once I'm rolling I keep pushing the "How Much MPG button am I getting" every so often. It'll start out low and in cruise mode depending on the day and I can get what I be saying.
Doesn't happen too be that exact number all the time, but close to it. Please don't give me an Article 15! I be Not Lying to my Sargent.
Around town I am hated as I am the poster boy for 10 to 12 MPG. How about if I put 50 PSI in My Tires? Will that help?

Yes sir I opted out on the JD fuel and I’ll let her drink the high end 93 mix.
Found it for &3.39 the gallon and did fill her up 110%

My girl only gets 91 (only because 93 is not readily available here in NM anymore) It does ok with the 91 and doesn't ping but when I could get 93 it was a little spunkier and did get better mpg's.. I guess the ECM has downshifted the timing a bit to accommodate the lower octane. I wouldn't even think about putting 87 in it. It does get its sea foam treatment in the throttle body twice a year to keep her at her best.
Whats funny is my 06 LQ4 didn't give a crap what I put in it, nothing made a difference either way.

I run the 93 as I said...but if I could I'd run E-85.. My rig would love that...Zoom.......... But like you as I have stated ..the closest E-85 is 40 Miles from me.
But you can eat good yourself and feed your ride some good juice (E-85)

WA state is corrupt if you ask me, no kidding.
Yesterday I was advising someone on a other form not to purchase a
CA Ridgeline FFT 20” bolt 308 for intermediate hunting use but instead a watchtower type HSP AR10 precision 16” tactical hunting 6.5 CM and he told me you can’t buy that or ship it into WA state.

6.5 CM is a sweet round.
