Did you bag that squirrel with buckshot or slugs?
3.5", 17m/usg on 31's
The 31's allow me to crawl over the free range mega squirrels when in 4 lo.

I get 20 to 21 per gallon. I also drive like a old man.
Stock suspension 235s, with the 703s, drop in K&N and tb spacer.

(I know the spacer useless, but I felt like I had to tell.)

Also I seem to get less mileage like 16-18 per gallon on the final five gallons, anyone else see that.
