My "other" car is an '86 Ford LTD mid-size w/3.8 liter V6 (around 120 hp) & 3-speed atx w/ torque converter lockup. Gets as high as 22 mpg for straight freeway down to 16 for city.

Sounds like you're doin' better than that! smile

Just for comparison, my '99 SE 4 cyl atx has reached as high as 35 mpg highway (that's w/ 4 on board & a trunk full of luggage). I've driven from Columbus OH to St. Louis MO (approx 400+ mi) on one tank of gas (two on board this trip).


Is the smoke alarm in your house also known as the "dinner bell"?
