Re: Gas Milage? problems?
From the information you've given, the best advice I can give is to try getting into the car from the passenger side. Let us know how it turns out.

Re: Gas Milage? problems?
if your car is stock you should be in the 15-25 range depending on the engine, transmission, and gears. definitely need a lot more info, ie: engine displacement and induction, transmission, gears, modifications, engine error codes, missing/hacked off emissions equipment, anything else you notice (loss of power, strong fuel smell in exhaust, etc)

lol
only problem i can think of, is there's a whole in one of the pipes leading to the exhaust....
i didn't think it was a problem, just smoke leaves there instead of the muffler.
