We will be coming up your way on wed with 2 240D`s. a 80 4-spd and a 82 automatic.
80 334k
82 134K

I usually hit the 30mpg range easily, I think with the 3:58 Diff bumps it up a little.
We will be using the GPS`s to check the MPG.

I just replaced the 17gal tank to a 21 gal from a 300D. that extra 4 gallons might hold me back. plus we will be fully loaded down with tools, baggage etc... but get out of our way on the down hills, we`ll be rolling.

Anyone that thinks a 240D is slow drives too fast.

80 240D Naturally Exasperated, 4-Spd 388k DD 150mph spedo 3:58 Diff

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
