[QUOTE="Davy Crockett, post: 346689, member: 367"] I tried it for the first time last weekend when towing. I was down to 1/2 tank and topped it off with E-85. I was pulling a car trailer loaded with a small tractor @ 10 MPG . (08 f-150 ) My milage went from 10 MPG to 9.6 MPG and I could notice the increase in power. I was thinking power would be less. Will have to see how it performs with no load but it seems like it makes cents to use it when pulling anyway. I haven't checked actual milage , just going by onboard computer but I'm not impressed with MPG of this pickup at all. I could run a big block chevy and 400 torbo transmission that would do close to 100 MPH in the quarter mile and get better milage than that. I guess I should change plugs but I have heard scarey stories about that project. [/QUOTE]
