Default 2nd tank of gas, mileage results.

Just used up my second tank of gas in the car. Calculated the mileage, and the results are in.........

11.3 miles per gallon!

w00t! w00t! w00t! w00t! w00t!

I baby the poor thing, and this is the way she treats me

My dad has a Lightning and he said his mileage sucked till around 10k miles. He also said his engine was so tight that he could barely break the tires loose till around 10k miles as well. My FBody also sucked gas till around 10k miles. Go figure.
