But good for 130mph + in a flying 1/4 even with the aerodynamics of a blunt brick and 2080kg weight.
OK, better get back on topic to keep the mods happy!!

The topic was Ford/Holden utes so no problem S.Went up to CH-CH and back today in my ute and after earlier reading this thread and some of the mpg figures quoted thought i would see how cheaply i could do it,got to the Waitaki bridge and thought "fuck it who cares".
Be the person your dog thinks you are...
