I filled up today, tire press @ 35psi on oe 20' rims. took a 2 hr trip total. Gone 90 miles, 4.3 gal used, 376 estimated range left, so roughly 466 on range. Of course i know that will change. Biggest contrubution was i didnt use ac at all.. Kept it around 65 mph. ive managed 20 mpg by doing what everyone recommend for gas saving tips above. I have a Volant intake, Magnaflow muffler and resonator delete. Didnt think how much drag ac caused. Also noticed that its stayed in v4 mode a lot more too.:)

well Ri into Ct is more down hill. Back into RI is the opposite, Despite the fact 20 mpg both ways combined is impressive.

Nice, 20 MPG is great for any V8. Did you notice much change with your mods?
