from ov Full - full = 50miles
@7/8 = 112miles
@3/4 = 156
@5/8 = 208.........................etc

each time I beat it I scribble on the tape and replace it when i fill up. because the last half goes quicker than the first it gives me known milestones to aim for and its a constant reminder to 'featherfoot' it!!
Yeah I know when I get to half a tank if iv gone 170 miles Im doing good, its about my normal...... Since I got those LRR tires I was at 195 O.o I can't wait to see the results at the end of this tank..
