What did you do to your Mirage today?

I put in cheap black and grey seat covers in the G4 to cover up a stain and match the grey interior and I also installed the OEM armrest in it too. Universal seat covers I'm not thrilled about as they're not tight at all but the wife doesn't seem to mind.

I ruined my OEM armrest.

Since theres no USB ports at the back i installed two ��

After lurking this forum for over a year, I finally decided to order the MAF sensor housing from Daox. Cleaned up my engine bay and installed my shiny new cold air intake with the help of various write ups I found here. Thanks for all the help, guys. She's lookin' good!
Here's a before and after pic.

Minus 11 mpg with a Mirage is probably still way better than most trucks hauling the same load.

It's all relative.

I only lose about 6mpg when towing our 14,000lb trailer with the truck compared to not towing with a 2000lb side by side in the box. I've gotten as good as 10.5mpg with a max combined weight of 23,000lb with a tail wind. I know, wrong crowd...Except 7milesout.

Mark - I was just playing. I only towed that for maybe 4 miles. 5 people in the car.

Fummins - One time I was towing my 4,100# 24 foot enclosed trailer with some really heavy crap inside (I forget what). I was towing directly east with a huge tailwind. My mpg was amazing! Something like 17 mpg! But normally with that trailer loaded my goal was 13.5 mpg but usually just barely made it into the 13's.
