    Same thing for you-tell us your real MPG,not what are you dreaming.And I'm wondering when you are driving,because you are 24 hours a day in every tread at this forum.

    You expect people to accept that you drive coast to coast and you turn around and say WY and CO are flat states! :biggrin_2554: .... Yaaaaaa, okay
