Yeah, I think that's GREAT mileage! The highest I've ever seen is 16 on a 300
mile trip.

Mark, that is pretty good if you ask me. Look at what you have there--3.90's
and 4x4 and tall tires. I have a '96 318 with alot of gas mileage mods and I
get about 20mpg at that speed. My truck is also 2wd and lowered 2/3. Headers,
3" exhaust and MSD 6AL compile most of the mods on mine. Also how many miles
do you have on yours? Is it broke in?
