The new Ford is serving me well. I was hoping for a bit of a gas mileage boost and so far, I have it. The 97 Chebby was getting about 16.5 with the 5.7l. I have the 4.2l V6 in the new Ford and on my second tank of gas, I got 18.87 MPG, give or take a small percentage for error. That is with the same amount and type of driving that I have done every week for the past two+ years: 250miles/week to work and back, and 70-90 miles with bike(s) and gear in the bed, AC running about 70% of the time. Windows are ALWAYS up, except for very short trips after dark, in town, or when heading to the hiway in the AM (about .5 miles).
