Droped this A.M. in Athens,AL, hummm holiday weekend, 200 miles from home.....

Well on my way home, 23 miles from da'house, got rear ended by a Big'o truck. Bumper gone, hinges, bottom of right door, and a small part of thr floor.

So me and my Sprinter will have rear-end work very soon. Going to have a Colonscopy done Tuesday, can'nt wait! :eek:

Those are actual numbers,(odometer miles),not statistics provided by the carrier.How would they know my total or all miles traveled, which is a total odometer reading from the 1st until the 31st, or end of the month.

Didja ever see one o them gps thingies that will give, on the puter screen each and every move you made for any period of time asked for??

Before you type "ain;t got one" ya better check yer rig really close.

I believe Mr. Guido drives a Ford Diesel. He should be a lot closer to 20 MPG then 15.

Yes, it is a diesel, and all filters, etc get changed on a regular basis.The only time it got close to 20 mpg was when I first brought it home,empty shell of a van.It got 19.4.But since I loaded it up, etc, 15 is average. A freind of mine has the same exact van, but with the 3:55 rear end ratio, and is getting 20 mpg,as high as 21.I have the standard 4:10 ratio. I also idle alot.And I am not easy on the pedal, either, for the most part.70 is my cruising speed.This may explain alot.

I have never looked at the tag on the rear end of my rig. It has a seperate air conditioner in the rear. Even with that on I can get 22 MPG if I keep it close to 62 MPH.;)
