Yah, I got over 21 mpg on the trip down yesterday--this in a Grand Cherokee with a straight 6 and 150K plus on the clock. I cruised at 65-70 the whole way. I have a tach, so it's interesting to see the rpm difference between say, 68 and 75.

Of course, I would have done even better at 55, but doing that in southern RI runs the risk of getting run off the road. And forget about trying to drive the limit in CT where trucks can't use the left lane. Damn rigs will get right on your ass in the right lane until you either pull onto the shoulder or move to the middle lane.

F the oil companies but we all need to drive more fuel efficient vehicles.

I am thinking of trading in the truck and driving a smaller vehicle. I have been driving truck for a long time now because I need the room and I can honestly say that I do not need a truck. If there was a 4wd truck that my big ass could drive comfortably I would own one.

When I drop the kids off at school I see people driving the suburbans which are not needed, these families could do the same thing with a mini van but these people could not be seen driving a mini van.
