And that is the weird bitch of it. My experiences are right about the
same, 24/25 mpg. Yet on smaller vehicles with V-6 engines the gas MPG
is worse. The absolute worse of the fleet is the 4.6 V-8 in my Wife's
Lincoln Aviator, bitch (car not wife) is about 12/14 and required high
octane to run right.
