Yeah guys....4MPG!!! Now this is in the dead of winter when it doesnt get over -45 F for over a month, ice has been on the ground since Oct, even 70w full synthetic diff fluid turns into jello, and your tires freeze flat spots on them. Not to mention warming your vehicle up for at least 20min before you go anywhere......Yeah, welcome to Alaska!!!

yeah i was going to suggest a block heater they are not just for diesels ya know? Well 1 Redneck to another and a Marine to a Soldier, I hope you find warmer climate soon. When we had to go to Norway and Korea for artic warfare training I hated every second of it. I'm a South Texas boy, hell it's freezing at 50 degrees.

If you don't have an electric fan, the warm ups kill you. I'm also sure that your "aerodynamic" bumper isn't helping much.
