just curious how my milage compares.

 

Let's go a step further, what sort of mileage are you getting, what octane are you using and what sort of tune related work have you done to improve it???

 

I get 11-12 mpg city, 15-16 highway. That's with 93 octane shell gas.

 

I am getting similar miles per gallon out of our 99. However, my 17 year-old twins are driving the 99 most of the time, no doubt their driving habits contribute to the great mileage.......We can only get 91 octane in California. I filled up last night after a week of city driving 221 miles and it took just over 19 gallons. Have fresh plugs and wires and a spotless intake, thanks to this site. I have noticed a gradual reduction in miles per gallon over the last two years, about the time the kids got their licenses! I suspect that a fresh set of O2 sensors would help the mpg but at $120 by 4, and only 2 to 3 miles per gallon improvement, you can buy alot of gas.

13 in town and 18 to 20 on the highway.... I drive like an old man on the highway. I get 16 if I go 80.

 

12-15 and I don't notice much difference highway Vs. city. I am pretty sure the fluctuation depends on her mood and the weight inside of the truck. Our surface street speed limit is 45MPH and I drive fast (usually 50-55) and I usually do about 70-75 on the highway

 

chris, slow down to 65mph on the highway and I bet your highway mileage will go up to 17mpg.

 

Phill, If you want, send me your number and I'll be glad to walk you thru things to do or check to get the mileage back up.

 

I only drive on the highway when I am going far and I would rather save an hour or two (or more) off the trip than the few extra MPG's.

 

I get 16 consistently around town and 18 on the highway...
