Default New vehicle

We picked up a Nissan Xterra a month ago, and after a month driving, I realized the mileage was horrible...14 mpg at best, so I decided to get rid of it, and picked up our new vehicle.

It's a 2006. And the best part about it is this!

Nice. I've been looking at one a guy has for sale on the vegistroke forum. It's been converted to run on grease too. I know with his programmer on he was getting 30+mpg's with his on the highway, and low to mid 20's in town I believe.

Well, so far, with a mixture of highway and city, plus needing to replace the tstat, I got about 26 mpg on my last tank by the time I filled it up. I need to get the time to replace the tstat, as the engine's running cold right now, and that's supposed to affect my mpgs. I do know I was looking closer to 30 mpg all highway, before my wife had to take it into town last week, so I'm hoping to stay closer to 30 mpg once I get the Tstat replaced.
