Anybody MPG go to hell when it get's very cold out? I was getting 11.2 and for the last few weeks I'm down at 9.1. No change in driving stye either. It's been below freezing here almost every day for about 2 weeks. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

When it gets cold the air pressure in your tires goes down, thus causing a slight decrease in MPG. During very hot weather the psi usually goes up quite a bit and while it gives you a little boost in MPG it will also cause the center of the tread to wear faster.

Checking your tire psi should be done on a routine basis not only for optimum mpg but to ensure even wear on the treads.

That was my public service message for the year. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

And no comment about the sex at the stop light??? DRTY..you're losing your image. 12.5 MPG @ 25 AMPH after arriving at office. Still looks like an improvement. Of course it will take 25,000 miles to break even!
