just for t bone & tom l dont get me wrong im not beyond a hearty go fuck yourself if provoked but do not see it as a normal part of everyday discourse between friends acquiantances colleagues or even strangers regardless of gender. dont go to new jersey. its the vernacular g politics the gentle art of getting votes from the poor and campaign funds from the rich. .

hey thanks to everyone for the input. glad to hear im not the only one with a gas guzzler. this truck has a k&n air filter on it too. i was reading on the box it came in some of its benefits. one of them is increases gas mileage. i was like gee..... what was it before this filter was on 5mpg im certain this filter didnt do much for the gas mileage. i was thinking of putting on one of those after market air filter systems that has a tube leading to the front of the engine compartment with the filter on the end of that tube. not sure what its called but i think k&n makes it. possibly a cold air intake system. plus i was thinking of putting in a after market power module. heard they not only increase hp but also mileage. any opinions on that thanks again!! joel wrote greetings recently i purchased a 2001 dodge ram 1500 quad cab/ off road package with an automatic transmission with a 5.9 liter magnum gas engine. i love it except for the dismal gas mileage. on the open road holding steady at 75mph its getting 10 mpg. thats the best it does! its got one of those headliner mounted information centers that can display the current mpg. i turned the dang thing off because i dont want to see sometimes single digits for my current mpg cruising down the open road!! dodge engine normally get prety lousy mileage but 10 is a little low. start by checking to make sure the overhead console is correct. then do the normal tune up things. then start looking for bad parts like o2 sensors. plus with the cruise set and driving over some hilly terrain the transmission shifts up and down more than expected. thats pretty normal too. its an attempt to stay in od as long as possible to conserve fuel. and the cruise control is a little sensative it tries to maintan speed with rapid throttle movements. when it gets hilly either take it out of od or turn off the cruise control. oh and when i put it in four wheel drive the front steering seems like it really binds a lot. if its on dry pavement that is also normal. all 4x4s do that. thats why they tell you never to use it on dry pavement. -- .bob 97 h-d fxdwg - turbocharged!! 01 dakota quad sport 5.9/auto/4x4 83 gmc jimmy beater 66 427sc cobra replica - project 66 mustang coupe - daily driver -----= posted via feeds.com uncensored usenet =----- http//www.feeds.com - the #1 group service in the world! -----== over 100000 groups - 19 different servers! =----- -----= posted via feeds.com uncensored usenet =----- http//www.feeds.com - the #1 group service in the world! -----== over 100000 groups - 19 different servers! =----- .
