Gas Milage

thats kinda low. I get really exactly 300 miles per tank with about 80% city...always within 295-310miles. That jerk is normal I believe, the transmissions have some odd "normal" characteristics if you ask me. But mine has done the same thing. The transmission is quite stiff in the mornings when it it cold.

I'm averaging around 20.5mpg. Wondering if I lost any miles due to the addition of a CAI.
