Hell has frozen over

Re: Hell has frozen over
The 3 liter engine is worthless. No more power than the 4cy and worse fuel economy than your 4.0.

Re: Hell has frozen over
I got 21 on mine.. Only 19.7 on the last tank though. I drove harder and had a little weight.
This tank I had even more weight and drove it really hard. Guessing it'll be about 17-18. If I cruised real slow on the hwy only I could probably get 22+.
Don't jack rabbit start/stop. That makes the biggest difference.

Re: Hell has frozen over
The thing is though about 5:30 when everyone is leaving work everyone around you is burning rubber. It makes it hard to drive easy.

Re: Hell has frozen over
The last tank I got 16 MPG. Could it get any better? Maybe if I wasn't so throttle happy all the time. I'm still getting used to the touchy gas pedal.

Re: Hell has frozen over
I used to push 19 with stock 245/75s but now im lucky to see 16 with 33/12.50s
I hope to get my fuel economy tune here soon and then I might be able to afford to go to work again.... But then again I have a 4.0
my old 3.slo 2wd Manual I got 21 and 18 when I would push her hard
