    Colder weather does too. Engine will burn more fuel before its up to temps.

    oooohhhh,, it's gonna be fun!
    I think the EPA mileage will be even higher, causing more Fuelies to collect and expect higher mileage, and be even more disapointed.
    I mean, who really expected to get the window sticker EPA mileage? Don't answer that, for some reason, it happens every day here. Out in the real world, I don't think I know one single person that doesn't know these test numbers created, are barely/rarely obtainable.

    I once saw a trip (not tank) MPG of 30 (fact). Have not seen again. Once when starting on the freeway immediately after filling up I saw a tank MPG of 25.6 ... until I got off the freeway and now it is 19.

    It is a truck.

    But I am POSITIVE the sticker rating of 32 highway on the turbo 4 WILL occur.

    When the book says it takes 0w16, the oil thread grease monkeys heads are going to detonate.
