One more thing about the R/T

On the way to FL , I got a best MPG of only 15.2 .

This was at about an average of 80 MPH with the A/C off and the tailgate up .

I thought it was the JET II module and the air cleaner so I made the thing
stock before I left to come home .

I let the tailgate down too .

On the way home , I got a best of 15.7 MPG at an average speed of 75 MPH
with the air on and using the cruise .

I am thinking that my less than desireable results at the strip and the low
MPG figures may be clues to a deeper problem .

What do you other R/T and NON-R/T guys think ?

This trip was 700 miles one way and we only stopped for fuel and food (at
the same time) .
