hey Jonathan what was the link to that twin turbo mustang that got good gas mileage? I had someone request it.

What Year on the Charger? What engine? What Carb Setup... IM a huge MOPAR Guy! 5-8MPG WHEW that stinks on ice... U could do better probably with a dif Carb set up... U better have a 440 under that hood to be getting only 5-8! Im not doin any better though... I have a Ram 1500 v6 and im only getting 16-17 mpg and no power! When i get the New FJ.... Prolly around 21-22 mpg Which i think is a damn good trade off :happy055:

dude, I won't flame you cause of your age and your "LOL" but I am 6'1 300lbs. I am considered fat aka obese. I don't eat more than my wife does, who is a tiny 5'6 140. I just don't exercise as much. That comment was narrow minded and untrue.

be careful what you say on here. You never know who you will offend.
