STR-10QC Gas Milage
Well, with about 3K miles on her I took her on an extended cruise at the end of June from Chicago to Memphis. We were moving down to Memphis so this was the relocation of the truck. I had the bed filled with stuff that didn't fit in the moving truck and ran an average speed of 90mph down interstate 55. I was pleasently suprised when I figured out that I was getting in the area of 12-13mpg with the air conditioning on!
I also found out what it's like to drive a pickup @ 130mph out running an Illinois State Trooper... :-) Getting off at the first exit I found myself flying through an off ramp that was much more like a chicane at Monza! Dam this thing handles like a real race car. Unfortunatly I was just about out of gas and had pulled into a gas station. As I was filling up, the State Trooper pulls up behind me and proceeds to write me a ticket for 89 on a 65. I have never seen a cop so pissed off before in my life!
I love this truck!
