In 2006, the engines offered were 3.0,4.4,4.8 - now it's only 3.0 & 4.8 - it looks to me that the 4.4 was dropped, not replaced - and, as I've stated, my 4.4 gets better city mileage than the 4.8 (easily 17-18mpg)

I was only trying to bring out that the E70 has you filling up more often for local driving and stating my dismay they have not made more of an effort to get better mileage through weight reduction (actually, it's increased 400+lbs)
