Any type of contribution, financial or in the form of Meguiar's products(151 or M83 prefered) would be appreciated but not required. My son has an Armada and he really likes it. He has 3 boys ages 6, 4-1/2, & 3. Him, the daughter-in-law, the wife, myself & the three boys went all over Houston this summer and was not crowded at all. He gets about 15MPG in town 18-20 on the highway, but he runs E-85.

I love my Armada although I had some paint issues that have recently been put to bed.

E85 = Ethanol 85

E85 is an alcohol fuel mixture that typically contains a mixture of up to 85% denatured fuel ethanol and gasoline or other hydrocarbon by volume. (from Wikipedia).

GM makes "flex fuel" automobiles that can run on regular gas or E-85 (as do some other automakers), but you must have an E85 compatible car.

Thanks for the info. If I want to increase my mpg a bit more I guess I need to drive really really slow.
