i guess i'll just have to let her warm up in the driveway for a bit b4 i leave so she can warm up. run injector cleaner once a month, and keep the tires filled and i should be ok. i make a 150 miles round trip drive twice a month, so that isn't gonna help much lol. cruise control as much as possible

**** is that all? I drive 60 (round trip) miles to gainesville and back a couple times a week lol.

Ive put damn near 20K on the truck this year (mostly because the only alternative was a minivan until we got the avenger).

Yup I was a college boy too. I know how it is. I put almost 75 a day while I was in school for 2 years. That adds up fast. Bought the truck 2yrs ago with 96k this year it just turned over 120k

2 miles you're better off walking. your truck will never get fully warmed up in 2 miles and you'll probably see around 10 mpg at best while its warming up. running it in the driveway wont help either --- you get 0 mpg running in the driveway ;)
