Sure the lead foot isn't the cause?

Curse my lead foot. Unfortunately where I love there are a few unwatched straight stretches where it is always fun to let loose. But I can say I do better mpg in my Jeep than I did driving my 5.4l V8 '91 F150. That thing ate more of my cash than any girl I was with.
