Tuesday's Musings
I went to the gas station yesterday to fuel up "The Buffalo" and after a few calculations, I have determined that she gets a little over 9 miles to the gallon. Not bad for a 3/4 ton, 4WD, 7.5L V8-powered beast that probably weighs two tons or more. Also consider it has the frontal area of a house to push through the air.
Okay, so that doesn't sound like much but it's substantially better than "The Rumblemobile", my 1973 IHC pickup. With a tuneup that number should improve, too.
I should have the parts to fix the transmission on Saturday so after that and a tuneup, it's off to the Smog Inspection Station! Whee!
Take care,
Kellan, the old warhorse
