Astonishing Milage

Hey gang didn't think it was possible but I got 380 Miles out of my MAX baby after put in some Greased Lightning Fuel treatment and buying nothing but chevron Prem... (though I do think my KS is dead or dying)

I still have to change my fuel filter (wonder what I'll get after that???)

To be fair it was actually 376 when the light came on... I dangerously pushed to 380 and not fear driving to a gas station to get gas (you fear of running out of gas on the way, the closes is a MOBILE is their gas any good!!!)

around 21 mpg is astonishing? Interstate driving I'll get around 26+ mpg at 80 mph.
