I really think the Smarty is the ace in the hole here. It's can really benefit mileage. I run Stanadyne with every tank full .... maybe that helps too. It sure helps the ULSD dilema.

The mileage was also highway miles cruising on CC@80 most of the time. In and around town, it's more like 13 to 15 mpg

I'm in NC an hour south of you in Highlands. I get up to Asheville every once in a while to do some shopping. I get up with you one day.
Right now, I need my truck back for myself ! damn I miss it.

It's in Indiana right now but, no it's doesn't get driven everyday. yeah, I was going to mention that. Will definitely be at Commerce. You a few others here and me will all get to see what kind of numbers it's going to put down in the 1/4. I'l likely just run in the work truck class though... I'm no pro........ yet he he [sm=icon_ladiesman.gif]

just go straight down 26 to 85. Then down 85 towards ATL. Probably a 2 to 3 hour drive for you. You'll see the signs to Commerce. When you get off at Commerce, the track is right there behind the outlet mall.
