Thumbs up Gas Mialage

Holla!

Hey me and my friend with an STI have noticed recently within the last month or so that our gas mileage has dropped.....

we think that there is a conspiracy going on.... since the price of gas is going up.... and the dealerships are making less, we think that they may be watering down the gas.... or possibly that they are putting 87 in the pumps instead of 91.

Anyone else have this problem?

Summer gas = more ethanol = lower mileage
