Hi,

I agree He who knows; those just wanting to run a muscle car as an hobby doing few miles per year won't bother too much about fuel and my preference would be a muscle car over golf any day; however how many Americans run cars and pick up trucks with huge V8 engines as daily transport;

That's a bit small...




A typical example shown at the link; filling one of these with 29 gallons of diesel would bring tears to my eyes; US gallons smaller than a UK gallon but even so it would still hurt.

Kind regards, Colin.
Could be worse.


169l or 37 UK gallon tank. Petrol though, which is cheaper than diseasel, so only about £260 to fill. And at 9.4mpg you'd soon get used to it.

£260 is old news. At today's price at a local garage it's £278.85.

Assuming the the thing will run on regular 95 RON fuel.
