Welcome to the site! Which do you drive most often?
|
the jeep is a commuter car believe it or not. falcon and mustang after work going out to dinner and out. i've never really tried to save gas until coming on here. truck was my first car and still keep it around for fun.
|
Well, we're all glad you're trying now? Think about a different commuter? That would make the biggest difference in my opinion.
|
There's no saving the z71. I've attempted to hypermile a friends same truck with a 5 speed. You can't eoc because the brakes and steering require a wrestlers upper body strength. He gets the same 12-14mpg. The engine is pretty tired though.
|
i've considered for the hell of it and the fun changing the z71 to a propane car i have a new zz4 small block in the garage and some of my boys play with propane. Yeah it gets 10 mpg's no matter how you drive it
