How the hell do you take a picture while you do 40mph down some road? lol.

Anyway, Thats exactly why I want a Honda/Acura for my first car. My parents want me to get a f150 since "theres more between you and the road" (as they like to say)....but I cant see spending $25 a week to fill it up..

How much does it cost you to fill up your tank, and how often do you do it?

I only got 164 on a half tank right now.


That's not good considering it has a 17gallon tank

I'm down to 28mpg... not bad for 550cc RCs. h:

I get better gas mileage with all the crap I've done than a lot of OEM cars. :chuckles:

Best I've been able to get lately is about 260 miles, however I have a little more than 3 gallons left in my tank when I fill up because for some reason my tank reads empty when it has like twice as much as it is supposed to to read empty.

I'm thinking of switching to some thinner oil because the thinner oil is supposed to give you better gas mileage. I use 10W40 but I think I will switch to 5W30. Too bad I just changed my oil not long ago.
