I finally filled up normal 87 octane with no additives, and have been driving when it's been between 25 and 30 degrees outside.

346.2 miles on 19.6 Gallons of gas, so thats roughly 17.7 MPG (this picture was taken before I made it to the gas station). Not too bad I wouldn't think. Not having that light bar has definitely upped my mileage. I wonder if having that thing on was also putting a strain on the engine. I don't know if I'm going to keep it off yet.

Under what driving conditions/average speed?

RE: My new mileage

i never understood why people get so **** over what their gas milage is..........People !!!! life is to short to worry about stuff like that........so you may pay an extra 500 to a 1000 more on fuel in a year that is what 5 to 10 dinner outings in a year we all do that. when you are out having supper do you count how many ribs you got and the next time you go andthere is one less ribdo you snap....... lose it.its alsothe same when gas prices go up 1 or 2 cents everybody gets wierd and rushesto fill their tank to save about a buck and when you are there saving your buck yougo in and buy some junk food maybe a paper some smokes so in reality thatsupposedly trip to save a buck costs youso much extra. just an observation lol
