He's a 2009 Ford E450 V8. That's 4.5L of liquid money. We're currently getting 5. 8 miles per gallon (based on 2 fills). He's not the most economical brick on the road, but the engine sounds glorious when you get up around 60 MPH.
Charlotte had a wee drive yesterday morning and will have another shot today. She's put her foot down - at ever reversing him - but is an excellent guide. Perhaps someone back home could slip her CV to Kiwirail or Mainfreight?
Great to see that you are having such grand time and the scenery is everything you had hoped for. Keep safe and take care love you lots MUM and DAD
ReplyDeleteActually the 450 stands for cubic inches so Winston is actually 7.3litres of V8.You are lucky to get the mpg you are are getting.
