New Record For My Truck
Hey yall,
got a new fuel economy high for my truck....
601.6 miles on 31.8 gallons = 18.9 mpg, hand calculated. Overhead was showing 19.1. This was 90% flat highway miles (south Louisiana hills are on short supply) with minimal idleing time. Now I must note that for the entire tank my Honda Rincon 680 with ramps and full gear were in the back, I'd say right around 750 lbs worth. Now I did drop the 4 wheeler to move my camper bout 10 miles (29ft Crossroads cruiser), but that was the only towing on that tank. The Edge was set on Level 1 (Economy) the entire time. Didnt baby on the acceleration, but I didnt run it all out either, just normal driving.
Figured that aint too bad.
