    Now I wanna see a pic of a tube of Smarties, a packet of Walkers ketchup crisps, and fish and chips wrapped in newspaper on the hood. If you throw in an Action Man in the Afrika Corps uniform you get bonus points.

    Do you calculate your MPG using the imperial gallon (3.78 liters) or the UK (4.52(?)liters)?

    We use the 4.52 litres, would that make the 30mpg i get here less in the US?

    Yes, sorry to steal your thunder! But since the gallon is smaller, you go less miles per gallon!


    I did some quick math and I think it translates into roughly 25 MPG for the Murican guys!


    Still better than my 4 banger trying to turn 33s! And much, much more power.

    Thats not a bad thing, whenever ive looked at your trucks on the internet and ive seen below 20 mpg if i add say 5mpg on it doesnt seem so bad. I didnt realise how much difference tires make to acceleration, ive only got 31s but i went from a load range c to an e because thats all was available and you can feel the extra weight when accelerating trying to slow you down

    My tires are almost 70 pounds a piece. I notice them to say the least! you notice them when braking, that's for sure! But I can still lock them up!
