Before my recent trrip to Iowa i filled up my tank in my home state of Georgia. My Nissan Exterra estimated i would be able to go around 330-370 miles before i needed another tank. I'm not sure of the exact # it gave but it has always been in that range when i have gotten gas.

When i got fuel in Ky my car now said i had 406 miles to go before a new tank. I was able to go to Iowa and back to the same station and get more gas as i had more then enough gas to last. Again the car said i had 406 miles to go. When i got home a few days later i had to get gas agian and this time the car said i had 396 miles remaing.

I know these #'s have never been this high in my car in the 2 years i have owned it. My question is what gives here, did they add something to the gas to make it more fuel efficant? Is this just a summer thing? If so why is it not year round, getting 30miles more per tank is a huge deal to me.

I've heard things that if your mixture is too rich, you won't get a lot of power and your engine will spit out fuel from exhaust.

If you put a lean mixture, you will waste less fuel but your engine might overheat and receive damage.

What mixture ratio if most efficient in terms of fuel economy without harming the engine?

The El Camino, in its various styles and forms has always fascinated me. I am curious as to what caused production to stop on this car. Please, serious answers, no smart a.s.s. comments. Thanks.

I just wondered how long it took people to be ready for their test. I realise everyone is different. How many lessons did you have? And is driving different when you actually get your own car and drive without the instructor?

Does low end torque mean quick acceleration?
Is it another way of saying quick acceleration?

We're looking at buying a boat (bayliner 21 foot) and wondering if we need to buy an SUV or whether a Saturn sedan can tow it? It looks like our mercedes C-240 cannot, as I looked for towing packages for it and couldn't find any. Thanks!

I found out about it when I went to get a replacement certificate from the driving school. They said the chief driving instructor is selling ones of the schools cars. They were really nice and talkative and gave a good impression. It is e-tested and safety certifified already so I wouldn't have to worry about that and pay money to get those things done or fix anything. But I told the woman that it has high milage and she said they keep strict maintance standards for school cars and assured me that they will last years to come with no problems at all, despite the high milage. She said it could last up to 500 000- a million kilometers maybe. This is in Ontario. So yeah... please tell me if this is the car for me. If its worth buying for that price. Or if it will be too risky. I ain't got much money, am trying to buy my first car, and like going on loooooong trips. I told them that too and they were very positive about it. I'll probably see it sometime this week and make a decision. Thanx

Can you get cruise control on a vehicle with standard transmission? If yes, is there a resume button to resume the set speed after the brake has been applied? And do you have to shift gears during resuming? Thanks

what is the speed limit on highway between cities in your country, for mine which is Saudi Arabia the stupit speed limit is 120 km/h which this was the case since they invented cars!!!

has your speed limit changed during the last 20 years and finally what do you think about that, does it agitate your mode to be restirected by those limits?

Can't seem to decide which one to get. Love the exterior of the BMW, the interior of the Infinity, really like both interior and exterior of the Audi. Let me know what you would choose.
