I was amazed to get 195 mi. on 12.7 gals, all city. Ive been trying to keep
my foot light. Top speed of 50-55, but only for a short time(3-5 mi both
ways), then stop and go into Bel Air. 15.2 out of a 4x4 4.7 auto w/ 3.55s.
Thats good. Havent done any total highway miles lately, but I estimate
23mpg.
