Latest road trip:
515 miles total
avg speed on way uo - 71.2
avg speed on return - 81.6
150 miles driven around town
MPG - 26.8
This was (except the in town leg) with 4 adults, 10 scuba tanks and all personal dive equipment
And gasoline was $1.39/gl (2002 post)
My first thought is: Where are the similar spec'd Exploders driven by others in similar climate/terrain showing similar numbers? No need for exactitude, just ballpark similar.
Our stock straight-six 2WD 2001 Jeep Cherokee would do 22 at 70. An Exploder is larger, heavier and doubtfully more fuel efficient, especially loaded to the gills with people & gear, flying down the road at over 75 mph.
