Double your gas mileage!!

Ride a motorcycle!!

However, if you change out your front wheel bearings maybe you will immediatly see a 2 - 3 MPG increase like it did.

I'm pretty sure he meant that he got better mileage BEFORE...

I mean...why else post the results...

I was shocked about how consistant I was at 15 MPH city and highway. Quite literally, two days after the wheel bearing change out.... 17. The only change were the bearings. Two days later and I am sitting at 1/2 tank with 175 miles on the OD.

How about half a tank 190 miles?

Can't even BEGIN to tell ya...

Hey, I thought *I* had the best gas mileage ever! During my trip to/from Moab I saw a low of 8.4 on Fins & Things and a high of 20.8 on the highway.

I still can't believe how good gas mileage can be when my VX doesn't have to work against that stupid, constant, obnoxious Oklahoma crosswind - my worst mileage on the highway during my trip was within the OK borders (15.7). Heck, I got 15.2 during the run through La Sal Pass (including the highway time there and back, of course.)

I got similar mileage around Moab. When I filled up when I reached Moab I got my best tank of the trip @ 20 MPG. For the 150 miles total I drove while in Moab and on the trails I got a whopping 7 MPG.

Smiles per gallon however, were the best I've ever gotten and that's what counts in Moab!

LOL, I have never check mpg on the trail...I know it won't make me any happier to know.

does 17 mpg seem all that unreasonable for a vx? I was getting 15 if i took it easy, and that doesnt include calculating for the bigger tires, I could have been round 16mpg.

(190/11=17.3)

Ahhh, damn semantics...

Man I really dont miss that 5mpg loss between my vx and my runner. :P

Hows that for incredible mileage? 20 mpg with 4 doors and a whole buncha steel and rubber wrapped around it

Knowing how notoriously un-accurate our fuel gauges are, I wouldn't get all excited until you fill up to confirm the usage.
