Re: For all you Sonoma Fans
Tim what kinda MPG does your truck get? What does it run in the 1/4? My real truck runs 13s and gets 20mpg towing. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

uhhhhhhhh, what?
To average 75-80mph, you'd have to drive. . . uhhh, 75-80mph the whole way.
Where does 200mph come into the calculation??

Not so... if you stop for gas your car goes to zero.. You will not average 75/80 for the 3000 miles...
now if you are talking about just counting the time that your speedometer says 75/80 that is a different deal.. it is not averaging 75/80 for 3000 miles...What a way to figure your average speed!!!!!!!!! I am not sure how you fellows figure anything out like that...explain it to me...Please... Tell me how you hold a 75/80 mph average for 3000 miles and never go over 75/80 miles per hour....BTW the 200 mph comes in like NASCAR Lap average 194 MPH but top speed in staight = 200/210 MPH to allow for a 194 MPH average around the track....

Actually By the time you got up to 75/80 you had to run 20 miles. I do not how many times you had to stop but I am sure you more than likely only run 75/80 for 200 miles..more or less. That is ok we understand..
BTW is your name duh?? It is signed at the end of your messages...
