You guys are so funny
lol
yeah, seriously, I'm finding this more funny than offensive.
like someone pointed out before, I don't really care about proving anything to a bunch of strangers on the inter-webs. I'm just here to share and collect information and help reduce our dependence on foreign oil.
Besides, you raise a totally valid point about the accuracy of odos
I know my motorcycle speedo runs about 7% high from the factory.
I kept track of odo readings throughout my 3 jobs today, but have yet to cross reference them against google maps.
I only spent a few hundred on all of my mods (majority of that was electrical upgrades - LED lighting all around, 120v battery charger and 2 deepcycles - to compensate for removing the alternator)
Because I put so many miles on the truck (it provides my primary source of income) and because the 100% biodiesel I run it on is expensive, I should save roughly $1000 a year on fuel bills.
-EDIT- I took a couple wrong turns so its hard to have a 100% accurate comparison, but it looks like the odo is just about spot on with google. GPS is supposed to show up in 2 days...
