I get around 17mpg with hybrid race, with my foot in it or in hills I get around 15mpg.

If it is your head gaskets are you going back in with studs?

I'd rather not post in other parts of the forum, but just can't stay away from you guys...

How's everyone doing?



Also, curious.... what is everyone paying for gas in ya'll parts? And deisel for some of you guys?

Gas in Denham Springs is 3.65, but in Baton Rouge it's 3.89....what gives? 10 mile difference.

That is low! Maybe that price will spread up here.

I bought diesel right north of Baton Rouge at 4.39 last Sunday.. Can get it at 4.59 in Slidell. Most other stations I pass are still at 4.65 to 4.69.

Afternoon everyone.



It's sad when I fill up at 3.65 /gallon and feel like it was a good price.

Matt, that is sad, But I know the feeling, when I can fill up for less than $125.00 I feel I have really saved money. When I am completely full my little computer tells me I have about 528 miles to empty. I really hate to even think about going to New Orleans, It costs a little over $ 40.00 to make a trip if I just go straight there and back.
