I also ask you about the tires. When I replaced my original Michelin Energy's, I foolishly went with Goodrich Traction T/As (same load rating, one less in speed rating) as I have had great success with this type of Goodrich over the years and they were about 25-30 per tire less expensive. Wrong. Immediate hit in fuel economy, most noticed on highway where my best of 35 dropped to 32. I have already lost the money saved because of the extra gas.
