    3.8 to 8 mpg average.

    I have done that for over two years. That's why I wonder if it is recording less than actual miles traveled.

    I was wrong on mpg. My best was 6.4 mpg worse was 3.7. stock tires. I think I will check speedometer with GPS to see if it is under reporting. Trip mileage equals odometer increase to next fill up but they could both be wrong. I do not drive it hard or tow. 2 wheel high 99.9 % of the time.

    I will check. When I first got it two years ago it was leaking at the fuel filter. That was fixed correctly. No Leaks, drips, or codes. Gauge does not move if I don't drive it. It held for two months while sitting. 22gal at about 1/4 tank filled it. Holds 28 I believe. 2004 ssv new air filter. I...

    2003-2004 roof rack cross bars

    Door Handle Covers VS. Paint

    Thank you. I may make a tour of the Philly yards. I also might try to find those covers in brushed stainless steel. The bright chrome plastic covers are a bit too much.

    Police Expo Owners

    The vehicle more than likely had a headlight flasher (wig-wag) unit that was cut out. Some were spliced near the bulb plug, and others had a jumper plug from the flasher that plugged between factory wiring and the headlight bulb. Look for non factory wiring that was cut. Whelen and Federal...

    Door Handle Covers VS. Paint

    I have a 2004 SSV XLT with black outside door handles on Oxford White body. Would it be better to paint them white or install after market stainless covers? How would either hold up over time? If paint, would auto primer and paint work? Or epoxy paint? Thanks.
