My/my dad's truck which I drive 50 miles to school and back everyday (roundtrip = 50) gets 8.1 mpg. Highway or city. It is the monster v10 gasser, and will eat little riceronis for lunch though. :P


So... What do yall get? And roughly what horsepower + ponies do you make? We make roughly 370 hp and 650 ft/lb's (lotsa mods). Oh, what tires do yall run? We run 33 inchers, but will soon be going up to 35 or 38.

PS this should be off topic. I don't point that out to be a PITA, just that I think the off topic section could be a really fun section if we used it, instead of scattering off topic threads throughout the rest of the forum.

As presumptuous as your comment may sound, I agree with you.
