last night i decided to try my luck. i allways wanted to break the 300 mile mark on a tank. i got 10.3mpg on this tank half was city half was highway all 2wd. i was really proud of her! it gets alittle scary with the light on though...i normaly fillup at 1/4 tank or even 1/2tank now a days w/gas prices.

it was $120 last night for 29 gallons at 4.02/gal.



finally able to keep her somewhat clean.





also waxed my excursion and painted the mirrors to match



cleaned my f-250 up also


enjoy!

ive done that. do you have this problem i have? i think i have it cause i have the wrong tank, but when your down hill it says less gas and starves the engine, and up hill says you have more, and when you turn right it starves the engine too? haha they are all looking good! im going to wash mine tomorrow after i do fuel and air filter.

 

[alaskanexpy]

no issues like that for me but it seems pretty normal just depends on where the pickup in the tank is. i've never had any issues with it being starved though. in my explorer i have tho! that sucks!

i just think its cause my idiot cousin put in the wrong in so the computer is being all screwed up and the float doesnt know if it should be full half or 1/3rd. cause mine goes 1st 1/4 100 miles, 2nd 1/4 100 miles, last 1/2 100 miles. like huh? ahah

[panda24619]

I guess I should be thankful for $3.79/gallon gas. I was gonna say i'm not trying to rub it in but I guess i am a little.

 

[SOLISIMO]

In Alaska how do you know if the low fuel light means you have no gas vs its frozen

 

[alaskanexpy]

its almost 60F aint nothing frozen anymore haha

[GAINMOB]

are you seeing carribou yet? i was stationed at Eielson near fairbanks and north pole

 

[alaskanexpy]

yeah that was caribou but we dont have them down here normally. we went to the wildlife park and they have a crap ton of them there lol

down here we just have alot of moose and bears

 

[GAINMOB]

im used to only seeing them with their antlers...i knew it wasnt a moose!!!

 

[alaskanexpy]

heres some more critter pics for everyone...










then last night after we came out of the bar cops were everywhere!

 

[alaskanexpy]

i found alittle mud to play in hehe






i used this stuff last wash...its amazing!!! kept the wheels perfectly (almost) clean

 

[JDMitchell]

Gas is "only" $3.60 here but I am riding my bike 90% of the time so the expy can make a tank of fuel last about 3-4 weeks. 40 mpg is so much better than 12.

 

[panda24619]

wow that stuff works. i want to get it so i can keep my wheels black. looks like im going to be buying it. and ive also been riding my bike. 0mpg since its all leg power! haha

 

[alaskanexpy]

yeah i'm very happy with the wheel protector works great!!

today i started my paint mods, i have alot more planned but i want to try and get as monochrome as possible but with the chrome accents if that makes sense.

painted the D-pillers..i like the look others may not but i like being different.

 

[walnuts4x4]

that wheel protectant is the ... i sprayed my rims last year before they got put on expy and have been using it since... works awesome
