what exactly are you looking at? pathfinders? old cherokees? grand cherokees? what?

6/19/2008 4:24:26 PM

Cherokees and grand Cherokees have inline 6's

6/19/2008 4:25:47 PM

O SNAP U JUST GOT SERVEDED!

6/19/2008 4:26:55 PM

they used to, but yes, the inline 6 was a better engine....

I was thinking more along the lines of 6 cylinders

6/19/2008 4:27:28 PM

Explorer lifted on 32's about 15 in the city

6/19/2008 4:27:32 PM

32's huh. that's pretty big.

6/19/2008 4:28:57 PM

'06 xterra - I can get about 18 city/22 highway

6/19/2008 4:29:47 PM

lots different claims.

crossovers get around 20-22 in city and 24-27 on highway.

4runners
pathfinders

not just limited to V6s, inline works

3 cyl in front and 3 cyl in rear also works. durr

^thanks

What about an O6?

6/19/2008 4:31:14 PM

V6 F-150 4.2 L

City ~ 16 mi
Highway ~ 20 mi

6/19/2008 4:31:52 PM

hahaha to sumfoo1. I knew you'd catch that.


my 98 Cherokee (RIP) lifted on 31s with the I6 4.0L got around 15mpg.

6/19/2008 4:37:41 PM

6/19/2008 4:38:38 PM

If you drive hard you will get roughly the same mileage from the V8 as V6 on ford exploders. The V8 just accelerates harder.

6/19/2008 4:40:06 PM

The v6 sucks balls but has a ton of torque so alas.

6/19/2008 4:41:03 PM

and uber shitty.

like 18-20 range.

[Edited on June 19, 2008 at 4:45 PM. Reason : WHOOPS. i didnt realize it was a V8. sorry ]

Why bother? Why drive a freakishly small vehicle that only gets a few mpg better city/highway rating than a safer, more conventional car. I'd recommend a Fit instead of a smart.

Only real use for a smart car is in an extreme urban environment, like NYC or London.

6/19/2008 5:25:12 PM

I have a Truck with a V8: 14-16 mpg city, 16-19 mpg highway.

6/19/2008 5:31:09 PM

hey thanks for your V8 input
