Default Gallons per mile

I used to occasionally offer tank rides around the farm with mine - a somewhat mechanically tired Centurion Mk5 (Aust) ARN 169-129 Armaggeddon. I would supply the first jerrycan full of fuel for start-up, warm-up and run-up to operating condition and would request the passengers to provide the second jerrycan for two laps of the paddock and back home across the creek crossing, with virtually none to spare by the time it was parked back in the machinery shed !

Very thirsty but the most fun I will probably ever have in my lifetime...

Cheers

Phill Hastings
