    Hi, I’m Ed

    The gas pump should tell you how much fuel went in. If you follow the practice of filling the tank, then it is just a matter of recording the mileage from the odometer and the amount of fuel put in. It is not necessary to use a trip meter. The fuel economy indication on the dash is useful, but...

    Pet Peeves - What Pisses You Off?

    Based on the percentage of imported oil to domestic (easily understood), if the US prices are jacked up due to Iran, it is pretty easy to identify false prices. Venezuela just came on line so we can tap imported oil from a closer location. The USA is better positioned for oil independence than...

    When you evaluate MPG, do you use the reading on the dash, or do you capture the mileage each time you fill up, and how much gas it took to fill up? Capture real data and bring it to the dealership. If the dealership does not help you, then change dealerships. Some dealerships really suck. I...

    In that case, your truck is drinking more gas than it should be. Something is wrong!

    Someone just tried to assassinate Trump

    That is unfortunate. She was a source of media entertainment, and the nicest looking cabinet secretary I have ever seen. Perhaps the claim that she had sex with Corey Lewandowski was the last straw.

    Hi, I’m Ed

    From Google's AI response, I see that MPG is evaluated at 60 MPH, or below. Many of us spend a lot of time driving much faster than that. Maybe a peak of 80 MPH is more typical than 60 MPH: EPA-rated MPG is evaluated using two main laboratory test cycles: city (averaging 21 mph, max 56 mph) and...

    Hi, I’m Ed

    The sticker put on the window when the vehicle was being sold should say the expected MPG given the conditions that MPG is evaluated under. For example, 24. Large tires with an improper axel gear ratio can lead to bad mileage. The Wrangler and JT are like bricks so air resistance due to speed...

    Welcome from Arizona (and Texas)! I am glad that you realized that you are wrong. Maybe of us live our entire lives without reaching that stunning conclusion. There is yet hope!

    Someone just tried to assassinate Trump

    I skipped voting in the Texas primaries, which is a first for me. I might vote in the primary runoffs. Since I did not vote in the primary already, it is my understanding that I could even vote in the Democrat primary runoffs. All but one Republican candidate effectively advertised that they...

    No. They skipped the 2023 model year for the Gladiator.

    Move to a dry state, and then you may feel wind chill during the summer. 😀

    Question

    Check out the LOD Destroyer rock slider. I have these on my 2-door, and my 4' 10" wife describes them as a "game changer". Note that the 2-door and 4-door versions are rather different. I really like the 2-door version. The 4-door version is obviously not as strong.

    Good thing it was not a direct strike on an Elk. That does quite a lot of damage.

    I have seen kits on Amazon to protect this wire.

    Someone just tried to assassinate Trump

    The election is over, but it seemed that Trump/MAGA was like a religion to these farmers and ranchers. I did not expect them to remove signs. Trump has clearly lost his way. DOGE did layoffs like a business, last hired, first fired. So the fat cats at desk jobs were not impacted but the people...

    Someone just tried to assassinate Trump

    In Texas, most Republican candidates are running based on how 100% MAGA they are, and how completely they are aligned with, support, and will take orders from Trump. This might not be a wise plan. On our long drives between Texas and Arizona, we would often see homemade signs outside of farm...
