    Yes it's thirsty; it's got a 351 V8 in it. I used to get abot 9-10 MPG; after I put the 35" tires on, it dropped to 7-8. Needess to say, I don't drive it around town too much.

    One 33 gallon tank at $3/gal is good for about 230 miles. :rolleyes:

    Good to hear from you again!! Wondered where you'd gone off to . . .

    So 230 miles per tank is assuming that it's 1) downhill with a tail wind, and 2) you don't have to stop for long at one or more traffic lights, right? :rolleyes:
