Re: Bought a new (to us) car yesterday.

Re: Bought a new (to us) car yesterday.
the little 4.0 inline 6 in my jeep has got one of those MPG average thingys and i know its hard to get a steady accurate reading out of it. that damn thing goes forever on a tank of gas. I love that motor, 4.0 inline 6 FTW!
