jimoshel Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 X2 I am real curious to see some detailed pictures of how this beast was constructed. Me Too...
BPB Posted November 19, 2012 Author Posted November 19, 2012 Its been too wet to get underneath it. But it wasn't too wet to go rv'ing. A couple friends and I took it for a trip. The best guess for mpg before filling it back up is around 12-13mpg. The route that we went had many steep grades on a two lane highway. Many of the grades I was able to kick it out of overdrive and go 50-45 on other steeper ones I had to go down another gear to go 50-60. there were two where I really had to get into it to make it at a reasonable speed. I might look into gearing it a little lower because I don't plan on going 80 with it. We camped last night at the Warrenton KOA, which is 10 miles southwest of Astoria OR ( where the Goonies was Filmed). We were greeted by thunderstorms, hail a little bigger then a pea coming down in sheets. After a couple hours in the game room we got a break in the weather and made a fire and made dinner. The trip was fun found a water leak on the driver side from an old repair that I will have to fix soon. I think that the gas mileage and power will get better after I fix the massive crack in the exhaust manifold. anyways on to what you guys really want, pictures.
