If your are goin to be that specific about "refueling at highway speeds" then no one should ever post highway mpg again. Meaning the 10 other people that posted highway mpg should retract that part of their post...
This arguement is retarded.

Who said anything about a 6-speed? The car I was refering to is an A4...
btw, I realize how a m6 works vs. an a4

Also, When me and my friend drove across freakin Texas in his car with a 232/236 cam we got 400miles to a tank multiple times.

So, as you can see, plenty of people have posted what they got on all highway driving, so I contributed to the thread by posting what I got on a road trip, with all highway driving, Where A Stall Does Not Matter. Jesus...people need to realize this is supposed to be a friendly ls1 site where people can read public posts in hope of getting good information; Not a place where you post publicly for the sole purpose of trying to prove someone wrong, or make them look stupid, or talk ****, or whatever the hell some of you guys get off on...

If that upsets you, I'm sorry, you can skip over my posts. Next time I will check with you to make sure my good information is adequate enough for you before I post.

Good point, your right, I never mentioned that the car was an A4, but I didn't say it was an M6 either...I guess I can see how you might have thought I was talking about an M6 seeing that I quoted rpmws6. Either way, at least this argument was half-way civilized...
