Latest thing for increased gas mileage
First I installed this and increased my mileage to around 30mpg!
Then I added this today and an increase to almost 35mpg.
Pretty soon I will get more mpg then the hybrids!
H3's got nothing on me!

Re: Latest thing for increased gas mileage
Yea, once I added one of those throttle body spacers and picked up a hundred horsepower and 10 additional MPG! A K&N filter and dropped 3 seconds zero to sixty, and adjusted air pressure in the tires and got another 10 MPG!

Re: Latest thing for increased gas mileage
Wouldn't you be better off putting Pyrius emblems on it for increased Milage? better yet just put the Toyota mega Cruiser emblems on it, that would through off the treehuggers big time.

Re: Latest thing for increased gas mileage
I thought you could just buy a coach and drag it around.

Re: Latest thing for increased gas mileage
I've been getting great mileage since I converted my engine to run on tree huggers...
I get about 38 mpth...
I filled up at a Al Gore speech here a couple of weeks back.

Re: Latest thing for increased gas mileage
Already is.
I swear it's true. Do you think I would lie. Of course the best gas mileage is going to be when I drag it around with my coach! I'll be saving a ton of money for gas on my trips. The Hummer won't use a drop.

Re: Latest thing for increased gas mileage
I told you guys before if you have the optional air suspension run up the back. The higher the back compared to the front the more down hill your going and the better the mileage. I have the back about 6 inches higher than the front and almost get 30 mpg which is plenty good enough for me. If I want more I know what to do. Watch that trailer towing though;too much hitch weight drops the back and their goes the mileage so as you see it has nothing to do with towed weight or total weight its keep it going down hill. Your Welcome
