Who buys a car rated at 20/27 that needs premium and is concerned about gas mileage? Not to mention, I was just playing around. geez

I get misunderstood a lot. Or maybe I'm not as funny as I think I am.
Just keep swinging.

That light-bar is awesome? Custom? If so, have a build thread anywhere?

Sometimes I'm envious of you people that live below 6,000 feet.

In regards to your statement of a sports car with premium gas having concern for gas mileage - it's not about gas mileage in particular, but rather about driving based on the conditions you're presented with. If you're on a slow moving road with regular traffic, there's no need to be revving higher and burning more gas with every shift. I drive mixed constantly. There's times where I'm getting 33 mpg and others where I'm getting 26 mpg on the same exact trip with similar conditions. |

Installed eightyzips shift & handbrake boots. They look amazing and while the install was fiddly, it went smoothly and they installed well.

The downside is that when I had my exhaust changed the old one had quite a bit of water in the muffler. Even with me doing WOP pulls on the highway and shitload of vapor coming out behind me making me look like a train it wasn't enough to get rid of all the water. I ended up drilling 2 small holes in the oem muffler to get all the water out before putting it into storage. |

Like you said depends on how quickly people drive around you. Here - not so much. The shift light comes on at like 2000 rpm lol, if you dont floor it at low rpm the engine feels fine

Since my 2nd gen is red, not sure it would have the same effect, but it looks awesome. Just tapped into the trunk light?

my brother's a dodge/chrysler/jeep mechanic. he just had to do the same as you as part of an official TSB on a 10 year old dodge. it got towed into the dealership as a "no-start". the muffler was so plugged up with water, it didn't start! after he drilled the hole and let it drain, it fired right up. so not entirely weird, but definitely something that should be resolved by the manufacturer.

Had some fun in snow. We got about a foot of snow last week, the snowbank is above roofline on passenger side. Car is surpassingly composed as long as there is ground clearance. I'm in a large city so main roads are no issue.
Tires are Continental Viking7 205-60R16s |
