oh boy

 

Whenever i get the urge to go back to a v8 i take the time to stare at this after refueling

 

Pfft it's pretty cheap owning V8s, I know.

I just don't drive them

 

My V8 gets 19MPG

 

Mine gets 10-14. That's why I got a flat 4. Literally doubled the gas mileage.

 

Is this you?

 

2UZ with VVTi gets me about 350 miles a tank if I adhere to the "Premium Only" when filling up.

 

C3's are disgusting

 

The 03 is non-VVTI. I only run premium living in Tucson because of the heat. Too much weight and the larger tires without the correct gearing. Daily commuting was around 200 to 217 miles per tank. The Subie is doing around 250 miles to a tank and it's around 3 gallons less. Typically 20-25mpg in that, depending on how often and hard I get into boost.

 

Yeah NCR was huge, most equip in stores and even ATMs came from the

 

I get 13.5 on a regular basis which puts me at 270 miles per tank, premium ethanol free only.

 

I get 35+mpg in my 5spd Civic which puts me at an easy 350 miles to the tank on regular...

Do I win a prize?

 

I've found myself putting 20 bucks into my tundra every couple days... It feels like it gets good mpg if I don't make it sing... But it sings loud and often

I dont dare calculate the mpg or top off the tank... I'd hate to see those numbers... Whatever they are

 

No but we're gonna have to do something about that man card

Choose...

 

Here you go where the washer is taking a beating. I have some rock sliders for the shocks, they are just larger than what I need.

Maybe I can cut down the face on the slider so it is not so big. They do take some trimming or they will rub on the sway bar link.

Got that extra CV axle out of storage for when I replace my seal.

This way I can start doing warranty replacements on the set with bad boots.



The maintenance list is as follows -

Replace both cv axles under warranty (have one OEM ready to use)

Replace passenger cv axle seal (have part)

Top off front diff after replacement (need to buy oil)

Replace thermostat (Zane sent me one)

Replace TRE (have parts)

Replace LBJ (have parts, need to do with TRE)

Replace King 2.5 rear reservoir (have part)

Install King 2.5 rears with new bushings and sleeves after reservoir replacement (have parts)

Pretty much all can be done in a day, minus finding a shop to repair the shock. Wish our house was built already.
