Reinforces the reason I don't watch or listen to podcasts. 40,000 words when 100 would do.
Sounds like this and other forums
That channel and commentators in general talk way too much dribble through exactly what you said.... 10,000s of words.
I used to drive out to Broken Hill often in a Ford F150 40 years ago and at certain times of the year you drove into a hot headwind.Fuel mileage in the western US is always going to be bad. Most wheeling is in the west over vast distances. You can travel at 80-85MPH for multiple days! And of course there are hills and mountains. Its just what you have to except. If you have time to slow down, great, but in some places you will get run over. I try in my Power Wagon at times to stay at 72 MPH or so as it helps, but at some point you just have to drive. Seems like turbos are great for torque and elevation, but also EPA testing where they can keep a light, static environment to produce un-realistic EPA numbers easily.
A decent size would be the go and i
Am I right in thinking it’s about $2100 for 2x30L fuel cartridges, mounting plates and pump??
Exactly.
That sounds right, plus another AUD8,000 plus fitting to fix the rear axle width issue.
I can remember this question being asked last month, so what you are saying is good news
Hello Sebastien, I think what you are asking for is an extended station wagon on the Quartermaster frame and it has been spoken about in various posts from memory...I believe it would be a great vehicle to add to the quiver but so far I haven't heard of such a Beast...Yet. With the use of the Gren station wagon back extended they could build a seven-seater or just a larger wagon
I can do most of that and I did not spend AU50,000 fitting it out. Mine is fitted for stills rather than video, but I do some video. But I am not interested in a coffee machine, which alone adds thousands plus more battery capacity, etc.
And If you want a little more peace of mind on long strech of roads, add the Brown Davis long range tank (68L) to The Grenadier and you will reach every corner.
