Here is a video on how I refuel the truck, you know without that pesky 5.60$/gallon stuff  :chuckle:

Yep, I swapped the transmission in this truck to a later series that used a electric signal for speedo, so I just use my GPS as the speedometer and trip meter so I can see how good my mileage is. Last tank was 1624 miles on 10.5 gallons. I'll let you do the math :tup:

That's funny, I should have driven the toyota when we met at barney's when I sold you that pistol ammo. I think I drove the wifes car for some reason. Diesel shortage talk, pipeline this, strategic reserves that. I'll still have a way to work and get out in the woods, whether there is fuel at the pump or not

Oh that's right, think I was in my green dodge. I'm looking forward to driving my v10 east side to do some coyote hunting with no gasoline bill involved

Technology developed/perfected during WW2. Cool stuff.
