The only problem I have with gas mileage comparisons is that so many things affect mpg that outside of a lab - the figures are virtually meaningless.

While I agree with that, an aggregate change of ~10% over 15,000 is probably significant. That plug looks great for being in an older car for 15k miles.

While this isn't necessarily hard science, the anecdotal information is still quite useful and interesting.

The Ford is due for a change. I might have to grab a set of these and see what happens.
