worth the gas milage
i have an 03 and just to let you know, i get over 40 mpg on the highway with it. i have never put premium gas in the tank, i simply keep it free from carbon buildup by using a Luca's treatment every couple months. it is the smoothest ride i've ever driven, and for the price i definitely recommend it. since the 02 has a bigger engine, i would image it would get less mpg. for me, it's worth the hp sacrifice.
