Cool! How big is the 4th gen tank?
Why are you getting so much better fuel economy now vs. earlier?
I wish I could get 358 out of my 2nd or 3rd gen.

Wowzers. I was upset just driving to my parents and back this weekend haha. $73 to fill up on Tuesday and $60 tonight didn't even fill me up. I swear, what's left of my tax return will be gone in no time at this rate.

Wow thats great Ric. Any idea why the increase in mileage? Local filling stations just make the swap to summer gas rather than winter blend? New tires? dump all your recovery gear, etc?

Im trying a new gas treatment, this is my first tank, they say it gets better on the second or third tank. Ive never seen this stuff before, but its been around for years, just not retail and I got my hands on it, lol Ill post more and the end of this first tank, then more again after my second tank, but so far, its looking real promising.
Oh, Ive used Seafoam, STP, Gumout etc before, never had even close to these results, lol like Ive said, Ive never got over 300 miles on a tank, Im so excited lol
Im not sure about the summer gas, Ive been here about 6 years now, had the 99 and now the 04 for just over 2 years now so I wouldnt think its the summer gas, being never got more than 300 miles on a tank, not yet anyways, lol
Ill keep you all posted
