3.25 just outside Atlanta. Tomorrow Fayetteville. The Odyssey is getting 27 mpg @ 72 mph. Same as the CRV, Camry, Genesis and Santa Fe. My 14 GMC got 22 mpg. The odyssey takes longer to get to 27 mpg after merging or passing. All got better going back west we’ll see if that holds. At 3K total miles driven since trading with my daughter the odyssey is at 24 mpg combination. I noticed less driver fatigue with the odyssey, probably from less road noise. The easiest most entertaining driver still stands with the Genesis. All things considered with the price of admission and weathering the soccer mom stigma. A mini van can’t be beat. For a vacation vehicle.

Jumped up to $3.79 from $3.35 :mad: 

 

Ya know guys that refinery fire in Deer Park, Texas has NOTHING to do with Illinois supplies. :idiot:

Speedway around corner down to $3.29 but the 1 two miles away is still $3.49, unusual to see such a wide range of prices for both RU and Diesel

Heading back not much change in gas prices going up. Anywhere from 2.75 to 3.09 from NC to Mississippi so far. Heading home for the last stretch Wednesday. Hampton Inn was a different story. We stay at the same ones. 20$ to 50$ higher. One had a wedding party the other, who knows. The Odyssey is a gem.

No change.

One year ago average US gasoline prices were ~ $5/Gal.  Here in the great State of Colorado I am paying $3/Gal or less.

Gas prices jumped 30 cents out of nowhere, from $3.19 to 3.49. Oil prices stayed the same and so did the gasoline on the stock market. Pretty stupid if you ask me.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
