Maybe its your brakes..........

Mine got almost 500 miles per tank during the winter. I suspect that with the AC on in the summer, it will be much worse.

well surprisigly on the way down i stopped every 200 miles and only had to put in around 9 gallons of gs???

so it will pull an easy 300 miles to a full tank.

also that was with so much weight my rear end was sagging as low as my front
