The thread is not over! The Gov't may not have been concerned with MPG. They
have a pretty big budget. You might not be concerned with MPG. You might have
a pretty big budget or maybe you just look at your truck.
I don't have deep pockets and I do drive my truck many thousand miles a year
so I do care about mileage. I'm not asking the truck to run in the 6s nor am
I asking it to go 65MPH. but if I can pinch an extra bit out of each mile I
drive, by golly I'm going to do it. Y'all may not agree and I'm OK with that. I
may not agree with you and you shouldn't have a problem with that. Just
remember, the green trucks in this yard are mine and the ones in your yard are
yours. Do with yours as you wish and I'll do with mine as I wish. I doubt that
anybody appreciates these trucks a whole lot more than me but the fact is, I only
have control over the ones I have titles to. At least this thread is directly
related to military vehicles, isn't that the essence of this list?
