Interesting, just back from a trip away last weekend. Travelled just over 1100KM on the onboard fuel (two tanks totaling 145L), 4 in the car with it packed to the gunnels !!!! smile That is a good deal of range without a need to stop or look for fuel. I normally bargin on 1000km on the outside to be safe (and carry 20L on the back rack - maybe 20L of water though if it is summer and I am closer to home).

Hey Greaser, could you show us a picture of the power end of your toy?

Hmmm let's see.

1. Needs more lights.
2. Don't see any doors.
3. Don't see any windshield.
4. And where are the heater and Air conditioner controls?
grin wink

thanks. so it's a belt drive, not chain. That should be better shouldn't it? OK, when I enlarged the pic it looks like there is a chain drive from the transmission to the actual axles. Is that right?
