is that with the X traveling with the wind direction or agains the wind ?

On our drive back home today we got 482mi. with 1 gallon left on the tank before filling-up on our '04 4.4.

# THE HOLY GRAIL

Arthur approaches an isolated castle guarded by soldiers ( #1 & #2 ) .....

S #1: Where'd you get the coconuts?
A : We found them.
S #1: Found them? In Mercia? The coconut's tropical!
A : What do you mean?
S #1: Well, this is a temperate zone.
A : The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plover may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land?
S #1: Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
A : Not at all. They could be carried.
S #1: What? A swallow carrying a coconut?
A: It could grip it by the husk!
S #1: It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut.
A: Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here.
S #1: Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?
A: Please!
S #1: Am I right?
A: I'm not interested!
S #2: It could be carried by an African swallow!
S #1: Oh, yeah, an African swallow maybe, but not a European swallow. That's my point.
S #2: Oh, yeah, I agree with that.
A: Will you ask your master if he wants to join my court at Camelot?!
S #1: But then of course a-- African swallows are non-migratory.
S #2: Oh, yeah...
S #1: So they couldn't bring a coconut back anyway...

You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.

I went from SF to Monterey Park, about 420 miles on a full tank with 5 passengers and a full trunk. Filled up before the light came on. I am guessing I have another gallon or so before the light, think I could have gotten 450-460 miles on a full tank. Averaged around 21 mpg, zooming on I5 at about 80-85. Have fun cruising up this way.

Last weekend the wife and I with luggage for three (You Know how women are) left from Hayward California. Headed down 5 over the Grapevine and into long Beach then the light came on. Over 400 miles in our 4.4. Filled up in Long Beach and drove from Long Beach back to Hayward on one tank of fuel. Over 400 miles. BTW We drove between 80-90 MPH mostly down 5.

it would take you from albany, ny to nassau collesium in uniondale, ny to rye, ny to poughkeepsie and then some.

A full tank will take you about 270 miles. The M1 Abrams tank has a 500 gallon capacity (about .6 miles to the gallon).
