How fast do you think it would run the 1/4 the way its tuned now? Just curious, is it fun to drive, or does that milage go all to hell when you start getting on it?

European governments endorse diesel, making it cheaper. The U.S. Government just seems to raise standards and says get it done, not knowing how it will happen.

Thats awesome! I miss my Geo, didn't have it long, but the best I ever got with it was 44mpg. And that was beating the living piss out of it. Gas was around $1.45ish.

it goes pretty good not stupid fast but if you spool it up it leaves rubber into 2nd. if i literally drive it, and i mean not easy i get 40-45mpg. and its fun to drive because the thing is so small but yet handles really frickin good!

on a side not one of my customers said that they got 52 mpg with their focus on a trip from Racine to oshkosh with the cruise set at 55

hes putting a dana 60 out of a ford in it. the spring perches to resume the factory four link is back ordered. he wants "lock outs" due to the dodge front ends being continuously "live" and eats everything up. an axle and perches is almost 1g cheaper then the $2200 in parts to repair the factory one:wooo and the lock out conversion is 2400 :durr
