RE: Gas Mileage

MY V10 GETS 8.5 TO 9.5 AROUND TOWN AND NOT MUCH MORE ON THE HWY.

Gas Mileage

How the hell are you getting that kind of fuel economy? What are your program codes? How is your excursion set up? Please do share. Man, that's awesome. If I can get that kind of mileage, I'd forget about the diesels.

duals

I put Duals on mine and it gave it some more horse power. It didn't help the gas mileage! It sure makes it sound nice, be careful it will make your foot get heavy listening to them roar!
