I wish I could drive from Dallas to Eastern NC doesn't one just "one" gas tank but unfortunately it took 3.

The average I posted was from 3 gas tanks with ONLY 100% Freeway driving.

I got to fill up once with 93 octane and the last 2 tankfulls were only 91 octane as those were all that were available.

DELETE.

Ripe hypocrisy is lost on some, and this has been a humbling lesson in that you can't teach people who just don't get it. Truth is, in a lot of ways I agree with the guy -- but I know where it belongs and where it doesn't. He'll sort it out sooner or later, too.

As far as "winning friends over" I do NOT need narrow minded people to "be my friends". There are MANY awesome members here that do not get offended and act like little boys. LIKE I told you I am not here to discuss anything but MBs. If my signature is offensive to you then don't post. Unfortunately there are people that are always trying to pick fights and I do not give them the pleasure. Please lets keep it MB and don't pay attention to my sig as this is who I am. As for Rockman he should know that his post on my thread is for "open discussion", a place where I do not hang out and do NOT like to hangout as it is a complete waste of time as far as I am concerned.

I like to keep it strictly MB.

Thanks

I really don't care about your signature or your opinions about our president - but you might want to consider taking your own advice and changing your signature. (If this is how you really feel)

HI Tim, How far are you from Newark, DE? I go there often.

Tim,
Since you asked so nicely and your advice was given so sincerely and since you showed class, I deleted my sig.

I will change it to say something else later on.
Thanks

Relax, Designo! One does not have to say something to manifest something, my 2 cents!

My wife has a 2002 E320 4MATIC and we regularly get 30-31 mpg when cruising on the highway. Around town with mixed driving (city/highway) we get 25-26 mpg consistently. Pretty good for an all-wheel drive vehicle!
