I actually just filled up today.
$37 for 14.8 gallons. I need to stop running so low. Don't feel like replacing my fuel pump, lol.

wish my Blazer got a good mileage.
We've got a 95 Suburban with the 5.7, and we get about 12 mpg, but it has a 42 gallon tank, so it'll go almost a month before filling her back up. But it doesn't get used very often since I have my Blazer.

ok, so it's 42 gallons, i know i've never put more than 163 L in............, that's 43 gallons! well, maybe the tank is only a 40 gal, but the neck usually holds about 6 or 7 liters (1.5+ gallons), so yeah, i can see 42 to43 gal capacity.

wait............what was this thread about again?..........

I scraped my windshield of ice this morning. Then put my truck sideways coming out of my driveway . The roads were literally a sheet of ice this morning.

New rubber X4. $860.

They look good though. A lot more aggressive treads.

Got the garage cleaned up, cleaned my garage heater (30k BTU infrared natural gas), and brought the garage up to 50*F. I then went to work on the Rainier. New plugs, cleaned the throttle body, and installed the air filter restriction gauge (filterminder). Sometime tomorrow I'll change the oil.
