Nofords08 build page

Yes way. I average 15.7-16.3. Have gotten as good as 18 but conditions have to be outstanding.

 

I drive like old people fuck. I babied it to Phoenix last weekend and got almost 13 on the way there, thas like the best ever. I got some encouragement from the wifey on the way home so I put the hammer down and averaged a little over 7

 

Your speedo has to be off or something lol

 

Haven't followed your build and cant see it on my phone but are you on 35s as well. If so are you geared at all? Also manual or auto trans?

 

​

 

295's and 4.88's i think

@ RJ

 

285's and 4.56. Lots of armor weight but still. I got about 1mpg better before regear. Numbers are coming off ultragage

 

She was at home, hence the hammer down

 

Hahahahahaha!

Then it went like this






....

 

Indeed sir

 

If I go off ultra gauge I get about 12-13. On the autos it does not calculate the mileage difference with larger tires. For ever 10 miles I drive my odometer on shows 8.8 miles. So I have Tk take that into consideration when figuring out Mpgs.

 

x2 if i went by odometer i probably would get worse fuelly stats

 

I do need to do a speedo recal but with 4.56 and 285's the numbers I get should be actually better than the real world numbers. I did 128 miles from Gila bend haulin ass and stopped and put 17 gallons in it, thats just awful, no matter how fast. I do mostly around town driving and consistently see 11.6-12.4. Before armor and all that a couple years ago with just tires it was never over 14

 

Do you have an auto or manual trans?

 

Auto

 

17 gallons for me is usually after 250 miles!

 

I fiigure 17 is where most typically fill up, i am usually around 190-220. I have never given it much thought til recently when I saw some guys mpg claims and did the math, thanks assholes, ingnorance was bliss

 

Your roof rack is costing you 1-2 mpg's i bet

 

Shouldnt the regear make up for that?

 

Was the 128 miles what the trip meter read?
