I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
99 GT (ST204)
87 Octane (hey, it's the factory spec)
Averaging between 29.8 and 32.4 depending on how I feel.
99 GT (5SFE)
89 Octane
About 24mpg
I blame cali emissions for the setback in mpg
99 GT 5sfe

reset the trip odometer every time you fill up your gas tank. if you always fill your gas tank to full, just divide the 2 numbers and there you go.

Only if you have undertaken some significant weight reduction....otherwise I am waiving the BS flag.

we have 85, its ok to run it up here in co due to the altitude.

Thinking about it, taking into account fuel, maintanance, repairs, insurance, tax and all the rest, I submit that I probably have the highest cost per mile on the board.

I've spent damn near two thousand dollars this year on tyres alone.
Fuel is near $8 a gallon.

Oh dear.

I'm not. I'm using 98(RON).

JDM ECU and aggressive fuel maps require it.

Detonation is a bad thing.

I understand that E.

But CoSo, that's not how it is around here. 91 is pretty much a waste on a 7AFE or 5SFE
