300+ not exactly being easy on the throttle.
Probably could squeeze out 375 if I drove like my grandpa._] Jeff

probably due to a lot of 6th gear cruising at 70mph back and forth on the beltline everyday. ive been averaging like 18-22 mpg.

Get roughly 16 mpg back/forth to work, comes out to around 200-240ish.
Was nice taking trip to Michigan, all freeway was 25-26mpg, I think I got 380 or 385 on that tank. Not too bad for a 7.0L IMO.

might have something to do with the excess fuel coming out your exhaust mang......... Originally Posted by Yooformula
