Yeah, that's around 25 MPG and if she's heavy footed that's pretty average. She's complaining because it costs so much, it's not a mechanical fault.

bart,now that i think about it that's not bad. today she told me that by wed. she's at a half a tank. well we think we found the solution. my friend is going to sell us his 91 tercel hatch. god it's ugly,but has 60k original miles and gas last forever in it. so both ss's will be parked. i'll ride the crap out of my 1000...
