I average 35. If I really bomb it around 32. If I drive it really nice highway I've gotten 38.

That's the actual mpg too. Wrote down the numbers every time I filled my car up for 3 years.


Most people just go with the factory number. A lot of people aren't getting close to the gas mileage they think they are.

dude, its all about the 2nd gen 12 valve cummins 6bt.

all mechanical, sooo reliable. easier to work on. easy to build more reliable power for less money.

once they switched the 6bt to 24 valve it all went downhill. those motors can build alot of power but they really arent that reliable.

diesel power took a 12 valve to a million miles, i doubt you could do that witha 24 valve without spending over 100 grand on pumps and what not.

my dad has a 99 2500 5 speed cummins and weve spent about 20,000 in engine repairs since he bought it brand new. its all stock save for an economy chip.
diesel adds up fast when stuff breaks lemme tell ya.

Yep.

They're my parent's old cars.

My dad is heavily invested in a bunch of Mercedes repair shops around my city and they do REALLY well cause everyone around here has a Benz, so they upgraded to the new model Mercedes and gave me the old ones. To be honest I wasn't very happy when I got the cars cause I felt like they could be put to better use being donated to someone who doesn't have as much as we do, but my parents figured that they could use them as hand-me-downs. Its kinda ridiculous. Even though I drive when I have to get to the mountains, I use my bike more than my cars...

1966 ford F100

8 city
12 highway

 the 390 thats in it is a POS that runs like crap and burns oil.. I am just waiting for my 428 to get rebuilt so I can put that in there.. Not my economy driver by any means, but Its a sweet old truck.


2001 subie forester

22-24 city
24-28 highway

Depends on how I drive.. and most of the time I run premium through it.
Has a full rack setup and I always have some combo of 2 bikes on the top of the car, and alot of times I carry 2 on the top and a 20 inside. Not great for mileage but I love being able to ride all the time where ever I am.
