What if it Snows?

Is it really possible to get 10mpg in a truck? The fuel dept here showed a guy averaging about that.

Oh I had scrambled eggs with biscuits and gravy for breakfast.

 

The only way I’ll get 10mpg is empty. I’m normally in the high 7’s to mid-8’s driving 65-68mph.

 

Try going 55 for a tankful

 

. I’m thinking the om is disappointed because of an earlier promise of bacon. In other news I was able to go to church and give thanks for being delivered from Volvo hell.

 

Not even in cali where it says we are supposed to........pfffft!

 

Well I am almost to the point of doing a first start on the tractor. It will only be a brief start as the power steering and the hydraulic pumps are dry. Maybe 5 seconds of run time.

When trying to prime the injectors I discovered the key start no longer works. So I was bumping the engine over with a metal wrench across the starter terminals. The key switch only ran the starter any ways so it isnt doing anything. There is a seperate switch on the dash for the lights. Might run the alternator thorugh that as well. Still some more fiddly stuff to do on the tractor before I can run it and get the loader on it out back.

Wife will hold the tablet for filming next weekend.
