    Fuel mileage V8/V6 LS

    After about 20,000 miles, my average city/highway usually runs about 23.5. Mostly city gets me 21.something and all highway about 24.9. Highway speed 85+. Not nearly as good as Corvette (31.9), but pretty good considering the aerodynamics and overall package. Always run 92 octane or higher.

    Fuel Computer Data error

    Thanks Mike. I will probably take the car in next week if I can run that much gas out by then. I'll post a reply once the issue is resolved to share with the Group.

    Fuel mileage V8/V6 LS

    I like my new LS and am thinking about a 2nd one for my wife. The dealer has an '04 V6 that would be OK with her performance wise. What kind of mileage are you having with your V8 and V6 LS automatics? I appreciate your feedback.

Knowing that it had said 50 miles to empty only a...

    Who has Nav/Satellite Radio

    Thanks Ray. I'll begin with my Lincoln dealer first, on the chance that they can handle it. I have done all of my on installs previously, including the factory kit in my wife's Chrysler. That gave me a little more freedom to locate the antenna in a less conspicuous place. We'll see how that...

    Who has Nav/Satellite Radio

    Who has the Navigation unit with the Satellite radio option? Was it dealer installed? Are you happy with it? I installed a factory (Sirius) system in my wife's car (Chrysler) and have put several aftermarket XM units in other cars. I like them all, but wonder about the specifics for the LS with...

    Cobra Rs, Bullits or other???

    10" wheels for 315's If you go as high as 295 or 315 wide you should think about 10" wide rear wheels. The attached pic shows my '94 Cobra with 17x9 fr and 17x10 rear. The tires are 245.45.17 fr and 315.35.17 rr. This set has all of the offset to the inside so they match fr/rr from the outside...
