I did a search and came up blank. While I am not really concerned with gas mileage/fuel economy, I am, however, curious. I had an 06 Mustang GT Auto and got consistant 28mpg on the highway.

I was wondering what kind of mileage all of you with NA 05+ saleens are getting? And what kind of mileage you all with SC 05+ saleens are getting?

Thanks

I was averaging 11-13 city 22 highway. 2006 S281 S/C.

That's driving like an a** half the time.

OK, OK,

I'll admit I drive like an a** almost all the time.

Considering you are getting the same fuel consumtion as I did with mine I'd say you are coming along quite well as a test driver yourself. Especially since you have the 465 kit and I had the pauper's 435 tune.

Of course... You do know I live right near Ortega now and on the weekends all the bikers ride north from Ortega to Cook's Corner along my main stretch of road here. The other weekend a group of three were checking out the car at the light so I just had to show them what a car could do. Really sucks I have to get out of it though when my rear starts sliding on launches and when I grab 2nd.

Oh and on the way back south bound the other day a bike matched me, looked over at me, then rode a wheelie for about 50 yards. A cop whipped a u-turn and took off after him. Being the good samaritan I am I rolled my window down and pointed at the turnout the bike took and the cops gunned it and took that corner hard lol

I think my car is losing its effect on my son though. He no longer giggles from the back seat

Ha haa!

You snitch. I can just see you rolling down your window and telling that cop where that biker went.

Whenever my brother in law who is CHP says something stupid I send him this.
