Yes, he explained that he always keeps his X at 7,000 rpm, requiring him to fill his tank every two days. He has decided that this week he won't go over 3,000 rpm! And, to his surprise, and the surprise of us all, it's been several days and he's only used half a tank! Genius, I tell ya!

Maybe he was trying it out for all of the "little people" out there in the world who don't have an oil well in their backyard?

But if he does that than we won't need all his oil....He should have kept the saving gas trick a secret.

Don't worry KaiFy, I always drive hard. My contribution to the oil companies should keep you in your X for a while.
