Hello Spridgets,
Final mileage 38.6 mpg
mileage TO was 40.5...Then Glen Burns tuned my carbs, and the car
ran much BETTER ..Guessing i was a tad lean from the final figures,
OR it costs more to run AGAINST the wind.. also wasn't so careful
about avoiding gasoHOL as i was Going..
4544.8 miles travelled
119.02 gallons
$502.70
When I first started planning the trip a year and a half ago i
figured $4.00/gallon . 30 MPG.... $533 for gas.. and if i changed to
a 3.9 rear instead of the 4.22 i could save 7%, making the fuel cost
come to $500....not to bad off my final cost!
and i now CLAIM the RECORD (DOCUMENTED! and WITNESSED) for the 21st
CENTURY of
1273.05 miles in a SPRITE in a SINGLE DAY!
