looks like this site doesn't like the image host I've been using


here's another host -lets see if it works




Don't have much data other than that. Doesn't seem to use a noticable amount of oil between changes (3k miles). Use shell rotella synthetic 5w-40. Below is what I get for fuel mileage.

Cruise Control set at 70mph (about 2250rpm) --> 13mpg

Cruise Control set at 60mph (about 2000rpm) --> 16.5mpg

Cruise Control set at 55mph (about 1800rpm) --> 21.3mpg

All of the above figures are indicated (as opposed to GPS confirmed etc) and were obtained in very similar moderately hilly conditions on the same day and were tested for more than 100 miles.
