The challenger will be a whole new world for me to explore and Ill have to have an oil well in my yard soon I feel just to keep her on the road but its still better than the originals mpg.
I figure if I average 15 mpg Ill be one happy camper but I fear it may be like 10-12 mpg in real world stats.
I wonder if the cam would help mpg a bit???
You will do better than 15 i promise. I get 18-19 easily, and thats with very aggressive driving on my part. You wont come near that 28 number though. The worst I have gotten was 17.1mpg
