Someone a while back posted that the sweet spot for the 2.3 is roughly 2.2 - 2.3K RPM on a flat freeway surface. I tested this and it's true. The lie-o-meter stays just about 20MPG at that RPM (roughly 70 MPH). Of course, I only do that for long drives. Mostly, it's freeway grand prix time and...
I was getting roughly the same on the base tires until I switched. I also don't trust either fuel economy meter and calculate by hand since switching the tires. Funny thing is, both gauges are off by different amounts (one usually <1 mpg, the other around 1.5 mpg)
I also ordered the cue ball (in black) for my Bronco, but I didn't like the extra height of the adapter. I bought their factory height aluminium shift knob. It's a little big, but I like the height. I kept the cue ball in case I change my mind again...

Had a fairly good size rock fly over a car in front of me on the way to work. About a couple of months after purchase. It hit perfectly in the seam between the windshield and top of frame. Shattered a good chunk of glass. Already had a couple of minor hits that I fixed with a repair kit. When...
