    I'll let you know after Moab...I just swapped out the originals (my case Champions???) for Denso Iridiums-I16 and i'll be putting like 4k-5k miles on this round trip.

    Thank you for the input. How about running on 10% ethanol (now mandated in New York State)? How does that effect your mileage versus straight petroleum? Thx
