Wouldn't it be great if you floored it and got better gas mileage and better engine wear?

>ok now i feel like an idiot
Oh no, didn't mean it that way. I thought it was a great statement and I feel the same way. I love to floor it and I only have a 300 six. Once I drove a 351 and it is REALLY FUN to push that pedal. Interesting thing is I am getting 17.5 mpg out of my six pushing that pedal a lot. Don't know what kind of mileage this thing is capable of because it seems such a waste to drive it with a light foot that I can't bring myself to do it.
Time spent behind the wheel of a Ford is not deducted from ones lifespan.
