Work car MPG hacks "On Topic"

[sailfish]

My 2015 Altima just turned over 21K.

My 2011 VeeDub had just over 42k before selling it this year.

I fill it up and never worry about it.

 

[clean hairy]

Get rid of all the excess weight like Cleetus Mcfarland did with his car Leroy on youtube........

When i get to the day where i dont have to worry about it breaking me I will probably be driving my avalanche everyday with AC on high.
Grievance hearing coming up in October will be the deciding factor. Lol

Modern cars are more fuel efficient with the a/c on. I hope you don't drive with the windows down thinking you're saving money.

 

[rod]

My new 3/4 ton Silverado gets 40 miles to the gallon. That's a rough estimate.

 

[pickup]

I drive 45 miles one way to work a 3.5hr job at 11 bucks an hour you can go around! Lol
I need all the pennys i can get.

A Oklahoma credit card can help make ends meet.

 

[Over 70]

I drive a 2014 Chevy cruze diesel. I deleted the DPF, EGR, DEF systems on it, have it tuned, straight piped and I get 33mpg in town and 52mpg on the highway with cruze at 70. Sometimes far better depending on wind/terrain. I've had 50+ mile stretches over 60mpg.

Car is putting out around 200hp and 330ft/lbs of torque.

I can get over 1000 miles on a tank if I trickle fill it to the rim which is around 18 gallons. It will only take 15 or less if you quit when it clicks from all the foam.

Those diesel cruise's are no joke when it comes to mpg.

Then I come in with my 03 excursion with a v10. Whopping 11 mpg. So glad its 16 miles one way. To work. 44 gallon tank. Burns half each week..

 

[wayfair]

My daughter's Civic gets 40 mpg, but her hot rod gets maybe, maybe 7 if I'm not flooring it the whole time.... lol

I loved my excursion but that thing got worse gas mileage than anything i have ever drove. I lived really close to my work at that time so it didnt bother me as much.

And here I measure mine in feet per gallon. Damn sports cars/trucks
