    Bye All....Traded 4Runner on '08 Vette

    Thanks guys, I'm really enjoying driving this Corvette. Where an M3 or 911 is a running back, this thing is a linebacker. A linebacker than can run a 4.5 40 :D And the handling seems to defy physics. It feels like a relatively big car going through corners and your brain keeps telling you that...

    Yeah...I'm sure those F1s are expensive. How many miles did you get on the stockers ? I assume yours were Goodyear F1 also ?

    Bye All....Traded 4Runner on '08 Vette

    Re: Re: Bye All....Traded 4Runner on '08 Vette I've been very haapy with the gas mileage. As long as I'm driving in what I'd call commuter mode i am getting as advertised. It drops off in a hurry if you ride it hard.

    Bye All....Traded 4Runner on '08 Vette

    Hi Everyone, Thanks for all the great information I got here. The tech info and install tips were a great help. But I have traded in my 4Runner on a new Corvette. The deal was just too good to pass up. My local dealer had a new '08 that listed for $50K, was discounted with employee pricing...

    question for v8 owners

    Yep...that's right in line with what I'm seeing. And my vehicle has been that way since the day I picked it up new. And although I have an iridium foot, I still generally always keep it under 80.

    question for v8 owners

    Wow...you've calculated it manually and you're getting 19+ mpg. Man that's great... I'm not sure how you're getting mileage that good without babying it all the time. I think you got a good one :bowdown:

    question for v8 owners

    Maybe we're closer on mileage than we realized. If the computer does overestimate by about 2 mpg, then we're getting about the same mpg. I calculated a tank manually which came out to about 14 mpg. That would put us within about 1mpg of each other.

    question for v8 owners

    Hill Assist....Flat Tire......:lmao: that's great. I know the newly adopted EPA ratings now have my Sport V8 4x4 at 14 city and 17 hgwy. And EPA numbers aren't usually real life numbers. How are you getting over rated mileage while riding it hard ? I will add that being in Florida I'm driving...

    question for v8 owners

    Glad I'm not the only one. I'm getting about 14mpg. My '07 V8 Sport 4WD is nearly the same setup as yours. K&N and everything else stock for me. 11k miles. The mileage was the same before I installed the K&N a month or two ago. Most of my driving is highway. I drive drive 27 miles each way to...

    Rattling noise by the drivers side back door

    Yep...that would be my guess too. That's exactly what's happening in my '07 V8 Sport
