There has to be some way we can get better gas mileage. They do this to us on purpose. All the companys.. Ford, Chevy..etc can make them better on gas mileage. Were getting cheated and im sure this country is going to start getting pissed off and do something. How long can this go on......... I payed like $20 bucks to fill up my frickin 5gallon gas can for the 450. RIPOFF..

yeah, it is possible, if you want some ***** 50 hp eco-car. the problem is that most americans want huge trucks & SUVs with lots of hp......saw a badass duramax the other day with a window sticker that said "imports are like tampons, every p**** has one", i thought that was so true lol

You think you have it bad now? Just wait until it gose up even more higher,you filled your tank full last night, you go out to start your car/truck/anything and it wont start , the fuel gage (sp) says your empty your like bs i filled it up last night. You go under your truck and there a a hole in the bottom. ( if you dont get it someone punched a hole in your tank and stole your gas)

Thats why i park my trucks in the garage. It cost me 100 bucks to not even fill my truck. 34 gal tank. I had about 7-8 gals in it already. As far as getting better mileage, Switch your diesel to used vegtable oil. It works. You have to put another additive in though i dont know what to use. Imagine your car smelling like frnch fries. Anybody with info, post it. 3.45/gal in philly area.

I never let mine get to 1/2 a tank anymore. Most of the time I just fill it up every 4 days. 18 to 25 bucks a pop. I drive a f150 fxr with a 5.4 in it.

ahh the good old 22re youll prolly get atleast another 120k out of it. depending on how you treat. may have to do a headgasket soon though

09-06-2005, 12:12 AM
just adjusted the valves so a new gasket is on......this engine has 100,000 miles on it. I change the oil every 3,000 miles at most and use the best oil filter I can get ahold of

Yep, this is completly rediculous, I would have paid almost 60$ cdn to fill my echo last week :huh

(I must add that I got this car because i'm too tall for most cars, but I can fit in a echo)

Not so fast their kid! Is it wrong for me to choose to save money on gas if I want to own an import car? Remember the First Amendment? I'm not choosing to debate politics, but if your American government would step in and help control the gas prices, we wouldn't have to resort to buying foriegn/import vehicles.
