Smarty mileage question

Cowboy,



You drive like this? Look at the odometer.

I guess you dont wear your Seatbelt

Running level 5 on my last fill up I got 22. 4 hand calc. The best I could ever do before was just over 20mpg.



Most of the time I drive 90% backroad highway (55-60mph) and freeway (62-65mph), shift at 2000rpm, coast as much as possible when coming to a stop, and living out in the coutry once in awhile a rolling stop at 5-10mph to save momentum. Granted I still have fun with it once in awhile and the biggest drop I see is when I start to travel 70-75-80 mph.



I will try to get pics of my milage and gallons filled up later this week, plus how my overhead is off now since it read 25-26mpg now.

Latest Tank - 22. 75

I wouldn't worry about the longevity of the truck being run that fast at break in. The driver has no seatbelt on, so odds are he won't be with us that long.

Only one name comes to mind... ... .



PROZAC! :-laf



Scary thing is now he does those kinds of speeds on the dirt. Having awesome suspension helps though..... Oo.
