When I was still actively driving, I went from a 400 to 600 HP, and gained fuel economy. With 400, I could get 5 MPG if I really tried to economize. With 600, I could drive like an idiot, and never get less than 6 MPG. Normal driving was about 6.5 MPG. At 800 miles/day, the fuel savings add up quickly, but more important to me, was the extra 2 hours of sleep I could get. No more stuck in traffic at 40 MPH, because I didn't have enough power to pass a slower vehicle. Motie ------------------------ Yahoo!
