For whatever reasons, Centurion is appealing to an ever larger demographic.

Maybe it's because when you're parked next to a Cobra, people realize that Centurion is truly the antithesis of.......

Yes and some of them are being escalated before our weather turns for the worse. 32 and a hard frost a couple of mornings ago....

Lots of testing and driving this Fall.

Centurion is fine.
Backlogged on other things.
The house is a mess... I don't care.

Above photo was a late night run in September 2016 from Colton, NY to the I84 Diner in Fishkill, NY. Centurion attended the Cruise-In at the diner.

Hi CrazyJerry
Thanks for an very interesting, informative and inspiring thread. It took me a few days to get through, but I just couldn't stop before the end. When I struggle to improve my vehicle's consumption in future, I will just think about what you achieved.
It will help me re-look everything to gain some improvement.
Thanks
Jan

Greetings DieselJan!
Glad you enjoyed this Centurion's adventures! It truly has been quite a ride. There's a ton of good ideas about fuel economy on ecomodder and abroad so, dig-in and learn, and if something seems tried and true that you can do, and it won't break the bank, then give it a whirl. At the very least you'll have some fun. Be sure to take pics if you can - they're priceless to look back on!

We've had a mild winter so this little Centurion has made a couple of flights and can't wait for better weather. Have a great day and take care!

Centurion out of hibernation!

Winters are long and harsh where Centurion lives. But in the Spring when the roads are free of salt, the little Kubota comes to life as though it had only been sitting for a few minutes.
