So saddening...

First the grille and the clear corners and now today no more sub, not more CB, no more PA, no more mp3 jack...closer and closer to stock it goes...
getting so close to stock its almost nauseating...

Maybe once you go back to stock tire size your mileage will improve. My 94 4x4 with a 4.0 5sp and stock 235's gets around 20 mpg and it has 168,000 miles.

going back to stock might get me back to 20...maybe (i think i made 22 mpg once)...but id rather get the 35+ from the honda and then get an actual 4x4 instead of the 2wd open...
