See I feel like you're on the same page as me. lol

20hp or less is all the insight needs to go 70 mph. Fun facts: A Guy has put a kubota 600cc diesel in a Ranger. He didn't do it for mpg but still gets 30mpg on some crazy big mud tire setup.
A old article I read said it took 15hp for a Honda gullwing to maintain 70mph. It was talking about regears to increase mpg on long adv riding.
