Don't waste your money the Spectre is exactly what I have and luckly I stole it from my car that I blew the motor in cause it doesn't really do anything for performance or sound

not tryin to start a "post fight" lol but i said right in my post that i wasn't doin it for performance or sound could care less bout either sure a few more horses never hurt nobady but i deliver pizza, if it only had 1HP but got 50 MPG i'd b happy as heck but i hate cars i don't fit in them very well, i workout a lot n weigh 210 lbs, gettin n out of a car isn't easy so tryin to get my ranger to get the best mpg it can unfortunately it's got the 4.0L OHV which isn't very easy on gas actually i really don't understand that though the F-150 gets 21mpg now n rangers still r avgn 15/16 mpg WTF, next week it gets an oil change some Lucas in the tank along w/ a few other things psi check a bath the usual u know but any other ideas to improve mpg will b appreciated n attempted
