and I thought my 11.5 mpg was bad

1-3 times a day because I have to make sure all the boost is still there. It might leak out on the driveway over night if I don't test it and exercise it. I can't have a flabby girly Hummer... gotta keep it strong!

Once I started modding an that was two years ago I floored it at least 5+ times a day and thats punching it. Everywhere I went though I was 3/4 throttle! Ive always beaten up on my truck! Since I put the LS1 in 2 months ago its ridiculous how I drive! I punch it so much I cant even try to count! Now that I can literally roast brand new wheels(16's) its hard not to everywhere! When the LS1 was put in I had the 20's on and I killed those poor Toyo Proxes so I went back to the Firehawk 16's for now! Im getting right at 10 miles to the gallon driving like John Force!

I floor it maybe 5 times a week once the newness of new mods wears off. Problem is I keep breaking $hit!!
The first week or so that I get new mods I probably floor it 4-5 times a day

I think the title should be changed to "how often do you drive normal?"
