I'm not too concerned about my mileage though I am very impressed by it and sometimes I play a little game of "let's see how many MPG I can get on the way to work" actually keeps me out of trouble :)

LOL... I did not give any thought into buuying the car, except that it was an Amreican Legend, I liked the looks, and the sound.

However, I have been thinking about installing a secondary 5-8 gal fuel cell in the trunk (spare tire well) so I can go longer distances between stops.

Really? A little "Road Warrior"esque there, ehh? 11 to almost 18 more pounds there, plus the fuel tank. But, not a bad idea, actually.

Welcome! Glad you found the forum. ( I think you are the same guy I talked to on the phone the other day and told about s197forum.) :)

i average 10.5mpg, but i got some serious mods and crazy cams in mine. plus it only see's the highway maybe only at a mile or two at a time.


we are on the same boat bro, I get that MPG in town aswell.

Ridiculous stop lights every-fkin-where + bumps + holes + traffic ... :mad2:

hahahaha I know, right? The only thing is the cost of gas... every fill-up would be like $60 a pop.

Obviously it depends on my driving style/location however riding around on the bbr tune I usually roam around in the 20-21 range. I don't really pay too much attention to it and rarely even reset the counter.

Correction: on this tank (at half tank now) I'm averaging 14 mpg.....but I have been hitting the gas pretty good. 75 degrees on the drive home today....picked up at least 30 hp with the cooler weather, so I hammered it all the way home.

My wife usually drives the car daily, with her driving 60 miles a day it reads almost 25 mpg. My wife went on vacation last week and I drove the car every day, mpg has dropped to 21.9, kinda tells her a little how I drive the car when she's not around. She definitely noticed and is not to happy about it! lol
