Default Don't complain about gas mileage

I just came back rom my first half day with the Citrus County Sheriff's Department. I was with the local town's Police but they sold out and is now letting the Sheriff's Department take over law enforcement at a big savings per year, so now I'm with the Sheriff's Office.

Anyway, the person before me filled the Sheriff's car up before leaving it to me. I zeroed the odometer and started off. Not noticing too much the mileage I was putting on until the end of the shift, I wrote down that I put 63 miles running around the county. I then loked at the gas guage and it was below 3/4 of a tank. Talk about bad mileage! I couldn't fil it up to see exactly what it was getting becuase we don't fill up till under half way but I take a guess at about 10-13 miles to the gallon. Glad I don't pay for the stuff.

Yea, I realize it's a Ford Interceptor Police package with about 400 hp, heavy duty suspension, dual exhaust and large brakes but I didn't stomp on it at all, just cruised around.
