The freeway flyer was a four-sped with revised 3rd and 4th ratios.

Here is a comparable:

Northern leg (straight up I-5): 288 miles on 6.195 gallons of #2 diesel = 46mpg

Southern leg (Hwy 99 south of Tigard): 279.8 miles on 6.34 gallons = 44mpg

It's first car show, at the Amity Oregon Pancake Breakfast:

A five-speed naturally aspirated diesel, same as came in the Mark I Rabbit and therefore the pickup. It doesn't have the aerocap but the pickup doesn't have much taper abaft the rear wheels.
