Hi Vekke,

What I do not understand is that you insist on going 100km/h while trying to get under 2L/100km... If I tried to do that my rig would eat around 2 litres more than it does (VW Multivan, Cd value like castle Neuschwanstein).
Usually, I stick to around 90 km/h behind a truck; you should be able to break the 2L barrier without modding if you did that.

Agreed, not something to everybodys liking, but cheaper too :-)

So Long,

Tinduck
