I fill up twice a week for a total of about $185 right now. Hard to car pool to Brownsboro. Taking the day off tomorrow so not hitting the highway tonight. Nice to have an extra day.

Hey Patrick, talked to FF and he said he used the gaskets from the OBX kit and he is not having any issues. His truck is also a daily driver like mine.

I'm about a 10 minute drive from work. Waiting to get the transmission fixed on the Mustang since it gets better mileage than the Lightning. $4.00+ a gallon is getting old.

Ya and I change my oil every 2,000 miles which equals out to 1 month. When I first got my truck 7 quarts of MC 5-20 and a MC Fl-820s was $27.00, now it's $37.00.

I'm averaging about 800 per week, sometimes as much as 1000 and as low as 700.

That's between 100-145 miles a day

Pretty soon you'll be the President of the "Highest Mileage 5.4" club.
