What is your daily-driver ..??
I picked up my 90 Caravan 2.5 5 speed about 2 years ago. Great MPG. I am glad I got that when I did.
You ? |
2001 dodge dakota sport, V6, 5 spd, 9 1/4 rear w/3.54 gears, regular cab, 2wd. I get 24 mpg. If I can get a posi unit with the carrier teeth on it for the speed sensor, then I'll raise the gears to 3.21. It has plenty of power to spare for it, thats for sure.
|
'06 Chrysler T&C 3.3
|
'98 Intrepid ES- 3.2L V6, averages about 24-25mpg.
|
89 chevy g20 conversion van but as soon as i figure out my gremlin, 70 dart swinger 340 with a 318/904/ 8 3/4 i hope it will be alittle bit better on gas but not for sure with all of my upgrades
|
The best mpg Mopar vehicle I know of ... 81-3 Omni/Horizon Miser .... high 40's -- low 50 mpg.
|
1999 Dodge Ram 1500 360/AOD 3:54 gears 16 mpg was driving it full time, but this is staying parked unless I need to haul anything.
Now driving the wifes 2005 VW Beatle AOD 30 mpg and my daughters (she just got her license this week) 1995 VW Cabrio 5spd 38+ mpg. I may be looking for another mpg car soon. |
Hey DOC my daily driver is a 89 dodge 250 ram with the cummins diesel first year in a dodge pickup and also a 96 1500 ram and neither gets me an award for fuel ussage as i spend about 145.00 a week in the cummins and the 1500 gets really lousy millage but the cummins is alot better on fuel but the 4.89 a gallon makes me sick to the bones :(
|

hey doc i guess i cant really answer that about how much the 89 gets , i have never really checked it out but i can usually get anywheres from 400 to 500 miles on a tank , just depends how and where i go , it is set up for the 55 mph as that is what it used to be when the truck was made and know doing 70/75 is sort of hard on it and plus being a 4x4 i usually do around 60/65 unless im in a hurry to get home from a hunting trip or something hehehe i have 362,000 miles on her and she still runs like a champ:D
|
What size tank ?
|
I have an 03 Mazda B Series with tradesmans box.
as for fuel economy I have no idea as the boss handed me a fuel card:) |
35 gallon tank doc :D
|
2006 Scion Xb. About 30mpg city/hwy.
|
98 4Runner
Gets about 23 mpg on the highway. |
2000 Dodge Neon ES, 28 average MPG. :D
|
I've got a 01 GMC Sonoma 2.2L. It gets about 26-28 mpg.
|
96 ranger king cab 4 inch lift on work dayslol 07 g6 on weekends..
|
97 dodge neon 32 to the gallon baby
|
89 Dodge Dynasty motor is still good body on its last leg i would re do it cant find body parts for it though it never lets me down
|
I drive a 2002 Volvo S60 T5. 247 HP turbo gets up to 27MPG on the hwy. With bad traffic, I get 23mpg. It's been so long since I drove my Duster, ite seems real quick to me ;)
I'm hoping to have at least the Dart running this fall, and be able to drive that . I'm not sure what kind of mileage my '72 truck gets, but it isn't that great...probably around 12 MPG for a worn out 318/727. j |
I've gotten my GTX to get around 17-18 on straight highway
and around 10-12, if i'm lucky, in the city |
hi doc your back i herd you were mia

3 years ago I picked up a 99 Caravan SE For $300. Had to change a strut to drive it away, but it's been the best vehicle we ever had.
|
Until Friday my daily driver was a 99 Jeep Cherokee...
It was cold enough here thursday nite that my Jeep froze up. Started FINE.... and there I go, merrily down the road, got about 3 miles before the steam started seeping from beneath the hood and smoke from the rear of the vehicle. By the time I got to the turn around, and headed back, it was spewing. 1 mile from the house, solid white steam/smoke, covering both sides of the highway, filling the interior of the Jeep, I could see almost nothing, had to drive with open windows in like 3 degree weather. Got it home, popped the hood, and found the upper radiator hose had popped off. I fixed it... Guess my daily driver now is the "part" I picked up friday... an '09 Challenger R/T, black, six speed. I like, I like. |
96 pontiac sunfire at the moment...good gas mileage, but it is a GIRLY car
|
we have three winter DDs...the 1983 aries coupe, the 1984 ramcharger, and the 92 awd turbo plymouth ("nice" winter weather car).
when its warm out, the stratus and the 94 ram are the normal DDs, but i drive the demon quite a bit. |
mine-- 05 Ford F-150-- Supercrew 4X4, 5.4 triton,, Cat back, Grantilli Air system, Hyperpac
wife's--- 01 Sebring vert. |
