I think this would take perfect weather conditions and probably more modifications since his best trip was 68mpg. If anyone can do it though it's probably DD. |
65 MPG probably isn't too far off with what Diesel Dave has planned. I wonder what's in store?
If he can get such high MPG in a truck I imagine he'd be able to get 30+ MPG out of a car such as a 1996 Roadmaster Wagon (Stock photo):
Well, It's a gas car. But still - I can get 30 MPG HWY in my Dad's 2000 Caravan without as many mods as Dave has done to his truck and the Roadmaster has faster acceleration.
EDIT: "I can get 30 MPG HWY In my Dad's caravan"; Yes, With wonky readings as according to what I said here back when I posted it. I haven't gone above 27 in a whole tank yet, But I do believe I can get more than 30 in the caravan.
