Cut a hole in the floorboard and make like Fred Flintstone.

You'll get the standard air intake, exhaust, and SCT tuner suggestion on here. An air intake and tuner is very simple to install and manage. The exhaust can be done by a reputable shop not too expensively. Zabteck's throttle body is also a popular item on the forum. You also should be sure to maintain correct tire pressure and try to adjust your driving habits. By slowing down (keeping RPMs below 2500) and coasting to stops, you're mileage may see a slight increase. Keep in mind that there are several factors that you cannot change that will affect your MPG numbers.

I concur with what STCTC said. When you get the SCT XCal tuner get the 87 economy tune.

Put taller, but very skinny tires on your Trac and inflate them to 60 psi.

Put a sail on top and go with the wind.:lol: Just look out for anything hanging too low.

I concur with the SCT tuner recommendation (especially if its from me) but I am slightly biased!
