The Excursions do get have horrible fuel economy if you have the 5.4L V8 or V10, but if you have the 7.3L diesel they typically get 20 MPG on the Hwy!

i average 11 mpg & now lets talk about the boat. 15 gal per hour at 20 knots. That's about 1.2 mpg.

I live in the redest red of all.

people in the mid west have it so good, gas under 3 bux and all
It's not really distribution costs, either. State Tax is a big driving factor for the difference in fuel prices.
It's hard to keep a good man down.

In NJ, they pump the gas for you and I paid $2.83.

I have a 1996 Tahoe but I love that car. Wife has a 2005 Santa Fe, son has a 2001 Santa Fe, son has a 2005 Equinox and daughter has a 2004 Honda Civic. Get the picture on who has the oldest car but I don't care. Cars R U getting you places.

Great site I found 6 years ago. I actually used it to buy a car, 98 civic. I still have the hemiram that sucks lots of fuel, I needed a daily scooter.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.
