    Just hit 35k on my 2016, and rolled up to 47.7MPG after falling to 47.6MPG in the winter.

    That’s hilarious. I don’t have a 17 but I think your Right

    It also works in reverse with nose pointing down!

    What’s pushing it? 3,000RPM? 4,000RPM?

    That’s cool. MPG hits are hard when doing towing. I hope to get a small 4x6 that I can use to put small amounts of gravel in to fill pot holes on our road. What speeds were you going and how many bars did you have to use to keep those speeds?

    I don't think i'll do the tape any more, never could get all the stuff off of mine and parts of the bumper look bad

    With that Chart I don’t think there’s a need for the video as it has the data I think we need. I’m very curious as to why they open so much at low speeds. I would think they should just be closed all the way until cooling is needed. The Grill covers do help keep the heat in the radiator when stopped vs without. Likely due to the shutters opening. Is there a way to get the PID for the shutters on the Scannon gauge?

    I need to put mine back on. I think i'll just screw the middle one on.

    Did you try putting the key fob on the steering column? There’s a little symbol of a key lock there and if you hold the fob there it will start even when the Fob battery is dead

    Likely they will replace the transmission with a new one if it wasn’t replaced already.

    How soon is soon? I’m also interested in towing.

    Good to know you’ve done another 100k and haven’t needed a trans again! I did a few trips down to the good will the other week and did about 50.3 when it was 98 degrees out with high (93%) humidity and the A/C on 72 with Highway driving at 63MPH. It’s about 22 miles each way.

    I feel the same way, and i look forward to your report. (lots of details and pictures please :) )
  14. joshg678
    I know how you feel, i'm the same way. 38MPG at 80MPH is pretty good anyway. I drive through Wytheville from time to time on my way to Tennessee, been lucky no major issues for me.
  15. joshg678
    I usually manage 38MPG when doing about 80MPH. If i do more like 65 MPH i can keep about 48-50 MPG.
  16. joshg678
    Sweet I’ll have to check it out!
  17. joshg678
    I felt the same when i disabled mine. I never looked back.
  18. joshg678
    Next fillip i'll take a pic and post. I still have 3/4 take so it may take a couple weeks.
  19. joshg678
    Got my average up to 47.2. I’ve done a few trips for work that are 40 miles each way and keep getting over 50.
  20. joshg678
    I filled up the other day and my estimated was 714Miles. I had a 40 mile trip With 63.4 MPG in that tank which probably helped.
  21. joshg678
    Had real bad traffic the other day going to a customer site and did pretty good.
  22. joshg678
    No Premium, its 20-30c a gal more expensive, not worth it. Yes i have tires at 50. I usually get 50-53 on my daily to work and back, but its only 30 miles a day. What keeps bringing me down is when i have to make trips through the mountains and i average 40-42. I'm happy with where i'm at, i could do better but i'm fine with where its at.
  23. joshg678
    Black does look Really Nice. The Big one kept falling off for me with the license plate (Once wind, another car wash that i didn't know was automated [used to be hand wash]) so i don't have any on my car currently since its been mostly above 50.
  24. joshg678
    I'm still trying to get mine to 47MPG, stuck at 46.9 for months.
