colder air=denser air= more power


yeah, we had a discussion abt this b4 tht was unresolved.... so, cold air = better mpg or vice versa?

i get around 270-300 a tank, right around 20 mpg for me (v6). cold air definatly brings it down though, although the engine feels stronger so its prolly making more power making me get fewer mpg

2 today and with the windchill -20 something. All 500 or more schools in ne-ohio were closed. I think this is the first time that I know of they've closed the schools b/c of how cold it was and not how much snow we got.

Yet again, my car wouldn't start this afternoon. Although I learned a lil trick, keep the gas floored while cranking it and it'll eventually start.
