Just completed our trip to St. Ignace, Michigan for the car show this past weekend. Logged a total of 626 miles from our driveway back to our driveway. Used a total of 40.91 gallons of gas ( we have a station 2 blocks from our house so I topped it off on the way out and on the way back ). Averages out to 15.3mpg.

Plenty of highway driving, but also plenty of rapid acceleration take-offs from stop signs, etc. Also, we participated in a parade with a 17 mile route on Thursday night and another parade with a 14 mile route on Friday night. Lots of idling during those parades. Overall I am quite pleased the information.

 

Geez man that's pretty awesome for the ride you have. Not much difference between that and an I5 really. Now I need to figure out how to explain to my wife that if I buy an Alpha and supercharge it's a better investment than keeping my I5

 

Your rig turned out real nice friend... I understand the situation of you not being able to offroad anymore. I applaud you for what you have done to your rig, if you cant offroad, you can still have one bad *** ride that looks sweet, as yours does... Love your MPG.. I recently went on a camping trip pulling are pop up and was loaded down and got like 17.2.. and that was running the AC too. I was pleasantly pleased...
