Anyway. What tires and wheels are you running? If you are not running stock sizes 185/65x14", 195/55x15" 205/45x16" or 205/40x17" then your speedo and odometer will be off and will read more miles than actually travelled.

he's just joking around cause his car gets half the mileage it's supposed to....but that probably means he's revving it to 7000 grand at every stop light....which is the only way to get anywhere with a d series

I guess you would be the extreme on the other side.....i hardly EVER drive 100 anywhere anymore. I prefer more of a 75-80 mph speed on the highway mostly because i don't like dying :thumbup:
