I acknowledge the 61-mile test is a "best case" result. The "3-tank" average is more like the 27ish achieved during taxi cab usage. This taxi result is actually unbelievable, but it is true.

My friend is still in the taxi business and I'm going to see if he can take some time to talk to his other cab company owners to see if they ever figured out how to identify these 3.8 engines.

PS. Just struck me: "Motor City" is a complete misnomer! They're "Engines" baby!
