    People hate me on the interstate.

    I'll be doing 60 in a 65... in the right lane of course.

    The only time I'm ever at 70+ is when the speed limit is 75 mph or if I'm on a mountain pass dropping the hammer.

    Head unit. That's it.
    I just bought a new daily driver in a Honda Accord. Im getting 35.5 mpg's out of it. I have a 2.7l xtra cab, lifted with 33's and I was getting 21.9 mpg's on a 40 mi trip to and from work. Mostly state highways, (55 mph) and usually went 5mph over. I had recently done a tuneup and seafoamed. I have sliders, but thats it for heavy armor.

    Dude I know. Mine was rated 15 city, 18 highway. I get a little over 17 average on 31" all terrains. I don't see how people can get 20+ with the 3.4L.
