    You need input from the tank guys. Seems I recall that's kind of up hill from Dallas or Shreveport.

    72 I'd suck fuel. 72 I'm turning on the Jake's.

    I think pretty much universally once you get over 1400 it goes down pretty fast.

    I used to do 7.1 to 7.7 hauling a tank. 74 to 79k. 67 mph. Then I didn't buy michillins and lost .5 mpg or more right there. Yoko's wear ok, just more rolling resistance.

    So got tired of mowing the back 1/4 acre and used some of the cash that I am saving by getting great fuel mileage with my crappy new Cascadia. Bought a new Husqvarna riding mower. That was the good. The bad son and I went plinking today and his Walther P22 was doing crack the slide cracked. The gooder news is Walther is good sending a FedEx to pick up slide and will send a new one for $0:00 not bad for a not so new one.
