That's why I keep my Silverado...It gets pretty decent mileage and I don't mind piling the miles on it because I paid cash for it and hey...It's just a pickup.

My car on the other hand...That's for tire boiling, small-child-scarin', mindless manfun.

i could have gotten a Hemi if i wanted one...i got 27 miles per gallon this weekend with the A/C on...to me that's more important than being able to go fast on the rare occasions when I need it!

here's a pic from tonight with the wheels on...

The Charger R/T's do that bad?

Weird...My GTO gets between 25 and 27 mpg on the highway...I thought the Chargers were in that ballpark. I know the SRT-8 is a guzzler, but the R/T's too?

for some reason these dodge engines aren't known for their MPG. I'm happy with mine though, it gets up to speed just fine. I just wish I could track down this stupid vibration any time I go over 75mph

With the new wheels? Or was it there before?

Go get them "road force" balanced if it's a new issue. If it's a pre-existing one, put the old wheels back on and take it back to the dealership and let them fix it (if you go in there with aftermarket wheels, they won't even look at it and just blame the wheels).
