Damn, seriously? Snow sucks. And I know its coming soon... Arg..

haha i'm pretty sure all we ended up with was a dusting from that and that was only on the grass. kinda dark right now to see.

Yeah. My poor Beretta is still parked on the street broken, and now it's covered in snow. My bro-in-law hasnt been by yet to load it in the garage with his rollback.

Push it with the truck...

Riiiiiiiight. I could probably push it to the driveway and come-a-long it the whole way in to the garage...but the rollback will make it cake. He's going to pick up an engine from my garage anyway.

Went through the first tank of gas already...6.7mpg! Woohoo!

Pulling the wideband from the Beretta to get the tune sorted out. The stock o2 is doing some weird crap and it runs a lot better in open loop than in closed, so I want to see what's really going on. The cam I put in 204/207@.050 117lsa should be very computer friendly, but at idle I think it needs just a little less fuel and at heavier tps it needs more.

lol awesome mileage

At least I can pull 21mpg average on the legacy... anything less and I would want to shoot myself. I can understand wanting a truck to lug things around but NOT for a daily driver, its just not worth it.

Damn 6.7 mpg? The 3400 gets 22 in town and the Cobalt gets 23 when I'm at work.. You could almost watch your gas needle move in your truck it sounds lol.

Mine gets around 15-16mpg on the hwy and 12-13 city driving. thats with a tune up and i have to fill up every couple of days and its like $75 a tank depending if i let it go past 1/4. we dont really have stop and go driving here though so its more like doing burn outs so i dont get hit by anyone while i pull out of my driveway so i can get up to speed. I'm excited to see what it goes down to when i put new tires on it <:)

That whole tank was screwing with the tune and 100% city driving other than 20-30 miles on back roads at 50-60mph. On the highway it got about 14mpg before, it should be better than that with the new engine once the tune is up to snuff.

Filling my tank is over $100 if it gets past 1/4, but it still lasts forever because my mileage is so low. I live in the village, work in the village...all within a square mile or two. So the truck sees mostly 1-2 mile trips on every start up, so it makes the mileage look really bad.

Like the Beretta gets 32 highway and 16-18 around town. And the Camaro is a 4/20 split city/hwy. haha

i used to blow a 1/4 tank of gas going to work and it was 5 minutes each way total of something like 17 miles for the work week. this was when i worked at the place right up the street from the house. those short trips really rape the mpg's.

that wasn't even letting the car idle much. just pull it out of the garage run inside grab my crap and be on my way. all of like 5 minutes idling, then it was the 30-35mph 2k+ rpm's at 430 in the morning bet the neighborhood loved that.

more like the beretta is getting 0 mpg now that you broke it lol

my beretta hasnt seen a mile in a yr now and prolly not for another 6 months unless i get off to paint in january

my neighbor hates my gtp with headers no cat and slp loudmouth xhaust at 6 am lol but i love the way the car sounds

I'm finding I do wind it out to 3000-3500 before shifting lots of times because I like to hear it. I'm sure that's not helping.

That's like me liking to hear the turbo spool on the Legacy... granted I still get about 22-23 mpg doing that on a tank haha.
