Fred, people kid themselves about mpg, also try driving without any shoes on for a few thousand miles and read the road ahead better - they're the real keys to getting better mpg.

Mr. Stone No apple, no orange. 50 year Old Chevy same horsepower long miles good fuel miles good service same weight as Van and more dependable easy to fix parts cheap You are right it is not the same as Vanagon I have 4 of these Vans my brother leave to me. I drive them all. Not one have I seen get this kind of milage on gas. maybe 16 to 18 no more. Why is this I see so many people get this big milage and I don't? I think somebody is not telling excact things on gas milage.

Good Morning,

Fred
