If you haven't driven a car that gets 6 mpg recently, the fuel gauge moves about like a tach needle does... Really quickly....


6 mpg??? That's what a 10,000 pound 440-powered RV would average. I think some can even get closer to 8 mpg. Even my Satellite with a 440/727/3.91 gears with an 850 Holley double pumper averages 8 mpg.
