Atrocious gas mileage. I've gone from 315 doing 75city/25hwy to 280 75city/25hwy, of late with the sub-zero temps in Chicago area. I gotta think sub-zero temps isn't optimal driving weather... Don't get me started on the BS gas prices in Chicago $2.00+ for 93 octane. These gas stations can kiss my a s s !

220-230 from full to 1/4. Works out to about 19-20 MPG? maybe. but i don't usually drive slower than 75-80 MPH (automatic so thats 3K rpm!) and I do a lot of fast acceleration and WOT.

need to replace O2 sensors. can't afford it.
