lol. i think you need to aim higher than 14mpg. my dads ford got 20.2mpg last time i topped it up. i bet if someone like WR or Jig was driving gas mileage may get better. i know i do my fair share of stalling when driving the thing but with 3.07 gears it makes it a bit difficult not to.

I'd be happy to get that mileage again.

lil chebby has a straight body, great paint, runs great, and no rust at all minus the tailgate and rear bumper that got dented in a bit from when the 4th gen ram rear ended it and pushed it into the ditch in an intentional hit-n-run...
