What?txyank1 said:Like now! ($1.149)
Yup....that's a Tigermart I pass every day. The one in my neighborhood where I usually fill up is $1.169.ShapeShifter said:What?
My first thought was that you added an extra "1" after the decimal point! Prices are down here also, but... My last fillup was $1.569, that's down from a high of 1.598 a month ago.

Go ahead, rub it in. Both you and NJAV.txyank1 said:Yup....that's a Tigermart I pass every day. The one in my neighborhood where I usually fill up is $1.169.
What lean-out there is from a more open exhaust system is made up for by the computer. Higher octane gas is a little harder to ignite.tpseabird said:These engines sure are funny! They like exhaust changes but not gas changes?

Hey shape...don't sweat it man....one day gasoline is going to be free for all Av owners and then none of us will ever have to worry about paying another dime...ShapeShifter said:Go ahead, rub it in. Both you and NJAV.
It typically costs me $42 to $44 to fill up, and I have to fill up just about every week, so I figure it's close to $40 per week on gas.
And that's for regular. At those prices, I really don't want to put in anything more expensive.
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about the gas mileage. If I wanted high MPG, I would've never bought this truck. Rather, what I'm complaining about how much more it costs me than you other guys.
Dang New York State and Erie County taxes!

I have yet to experience any knocking in the Av. Admittedly I do drive it a little easier than I did my pickups. Friday coming home from work was the first time I've kicked it into passing gear...slowpoke in left lane...and no pinging.
