    give me your two cents.....

    I own an 2005 2wd. I have been tracking milage since it had 4000 miles on it (now @125,000) I get a consistant 16mpg hwy/city. I run E85 every now and then but only if there is more than .50 cents a gallon difference. Mileage drops to 12-13 on E85. But I agree 14 is way too much

    New Firestones

    I have had Destination LE on my 05 for aprrox 46,000 mi, They have been great tires. Way better than the OEN Wranglers. When they wear out there will be another set also

    How many yards of top soil or mulch can the bed of the trac hold?

    I have routinely hauled 2 yards of mulch in my trac. I put my tailgate down and flipout my extendhan five milese to go more ter then lay a tarp over it to fill in the gaps. I dont have to go more than 5 mile so it works out really well for me. Regards
