Vacation milage

OK; I'm happy.

Just got back from vacation and did the math.......V10 dually plus 3000lb of camper plus 2200lb of boat............average speed 57mph = 3.6litres/100km or 10.4 mpg (imp) in FORD comfort.

Even passed a few things along the way!

Not too shabby!

Rick, that's impressive mileage, 10.4mpg (IMP) is 12.3mpg US.

If only I could force myself to travel at 57mph.

By the way, 3.6L/100km is ~75mpg US.
