Sucks to hear about that Brennan. You should still bring the Crown Vic to our meets. :)

And, Melt, my 07 3.0 gets 18 MPG with only 30k on it. My 4.0 OHV got 20 even with 33's and 100k on it.

Must be the 4 wheel drive that kills it. My 3.0 always got around 23 -24 mpg. My 08 4.0 2WD with about 6K on it gets 20 -21mpg. most every time. That's mostly all urban driving.

It makes gas engines get worse mileage because you want to keep your foot in it all the time!
