Works for me. I hope its a Mustang!

9mpg huh, that pretty funny! I am averaging in the 7's with my Challenger and it only has a 19gal. tank.

Got him a Jeep power wheels. I used to have a 99 Jeep Cherokee with six inch lift and 33x12.50 tires before I got my X so that works for me. I'm may have to change out the battery on it... 14-18 hours to charge, will run for 50 minutes... I'm thinking if I put an optima yellow top in it he can drive it for 3 days straight!

I get 9mpg with lots of idling for heat or A/C or dvd player operation. If I keep the idling to a minimum I get 10mpg around town and 14mpg at 80mph/15mpg at 70mph on the highway. 7mpg with the travel trailer (35ft. / 8000 lb. empty 11000 lb. max) on the back. (2004 V10 4x4 Excursion)

A buddy of mine has a Jeep SRT-8 that's been supercharged. I think he said he gets 6mpg around town.

What, no cannons or tear gas? I'm glad I have to work, black Fridays are insane. The malls are pretty much like thunderdome.

Somehow we avoided black Friday and are camping at the beach.
Here is my sons jeep huricane. He loves it. We were lucky and found it for $100 in new condition on Craigslist. Looks like he needs to adjust his mirrors.
