Yes, well, I was too in his shoes at one point. But I didnt come off like that either when I didnt get something answered. Plus, I learned REAL QUICK to at least try and use that search button up there.

But, to not be a total d!ck, I am currently seeing 10.3-10.5 around town. This isn't exactly accurate, cause Im going by the overhead. But it went down to that from 12ish after I got the tires installed. It's never been good though really, usually high 11-low 12.
