Yep, almost 1 1/2 mpg for me. Same in town.

Someone said you needed more sidewall. I was not going to say it as I assumed you liked it that way, but now it's been said, I will agree. My preference would be more side wall.

Didn't hear from you yesterday or night, so figured you were to uppity for us, now that you're looking so good!

I get less mileage on the highway, but with gas at $1.93.....

Pat said he was getting bigger tires once the freebies wore out.

Curbs are not your friend.

I'd like to go with a 45 series to get some more sidewall height, smooth out the ride some.

Not much has happened other than some ugly football.

I think it was Stealth that poured the filter contents in a glass. It was nasty. Lookedlike crude oil.

That is almost exactly what poured out when me dad dumped it in his hand....the filter still had the Ford logo on it, didn't see motorcraft anywhere...so I think that was the one from the factory!! but I'm not sure...anyways it helped a tons because coming back up here, I'm averaging about 20+ mpg, while running ~72-73 mph average....

That's good. Both times I've changed mine the tank side of the filter was dirty but the engine side of the filter was clean. Good thing.
