Whats the average fuel usage per run.

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

Did a mid-engine V10 once and had to leave fuel cans along the route....

Liar?
Well, I'm not sure how many internet points you get for lying about fuel consumption on some random small forum, but no.

I was referring to all, not to you. It is an old "tongue-in-cheek" saying that it sounds like it may not be used anymore. Everyone builds on an original statement then things grow exponentially often, jokingly, expanded on. No offence meant!

Over the years worked with and/or for English, Australians, New Zealanders' and engineers from several other countries but with no accent showing in a post I did not know you were not from the PNW. Even here in the "states" slang or even non-slang words or phrases change meaning or do not exist so misinterpretations' do exist in different places in the country. Even face to face care often has to be taken :wink: :lol: .

There was one English engineer I worked with who had no discernable British accent. I asked the British engineer I was working with at the time how come no accent: his reply was he went to "(name of a prestigious college)" and was rich so he could afford not to have an accent. Even I thought that was funny.

Seeing the smiley face makes me feel better.
