I went for a MPG cruise yesterday

And I got some good news! Over 16!

I drove 113 miles, about half and half freeway and windy mountain canyon, with a couple miles of dirt road thrown in. On 6.6 gallons. I know that figures out to 17.12, but my odie is a little slow, about a tenth in 2 miles, so I figured about about 107 miles. That's 16.21. (a tenth in 2 miles-1/2 of total=56. 56 x .1 = 5.6. 113-5.6=107.4. round down to 107 miles divided by 6.6=16.21

'68 long bed, 250 4 speed. And I was doing 65-70 on the freeway and 50 or so in the canyons.

I think that is pretty good for this old truck!
