Ok...let's substitute 'high powered yellow Mustang' for SUV....
make more sense?

I'm getting over 21mpg in the Mustang. Not bad. It's not really high
powered
though, only a 4.6L.

I thought your Mustang was a GT?

It is. The GT has a 4.6L V-8, with an advertised 300hp. I don't do a lot
of drag
racing though. (Although, I *know* it'll do 110mph in 3rd gear - without
redlining.) I've only done that once. That was enough.

My baby blue '72 Stang with a 2 bbl 302 V8 with a C4 running bias-ply tires
with a few lines going down the middle wiould easily do 110. I really miss
her!


Hell, my pickup would get pretty close to 110, and my old, 1989 Moto Guzzi will
also, but neither can do it in third gear well before redlining!
