Go to Ireland...they have designed all the roads to run down hill!
Be a red neck..like my younger brother ....put taller wheels on the back...then it will always be going down hill. .

My heavier SD gets far more than that on the freeway. I receive 28-31mpg all the time.

I tried running a Carfax on it. I'm sure there must be some mistake on my part, ;-) but the VIN comes up as in-valid. I even added WD to his numbers. In-VALID!!!
You really have to be careful when dealing with these E-bay types.

Well, as per MB if I can recall. The old OM617 turbo 300D's get around 35 mpg at 55 mph with the 3.07.
When they were brand spanking new, of course. |

Your SD is a turbo, this is not
