Thanks ranger_dog, I just didnt like the fact that some people on this site are saying there is noway at all that this can happen....bascically calling me a liar or an idiot cause i cant do simple math, but with that said i may have taken it a little personal (sorry) I know we dont want to give people the wrong impression on these trucks I was bascically celebrating my abnormallity...haha I really like the deer analogy. But yes as rare as it was it is TRUE...i havent preformed the test in awhile but I will this weekend I will be going up to Oklahoma city, OK and i will see how she preforms.

Distance driven 996kms/621 Miles
Trip computer reading 9.5L/100kms = 24.7mpg US = 29.7mpg Imp
Next fill was 120L to full = 31.7 Gals US = 26.4 Gals Imp
Actual mileage = 19.58Mpg US = 23.5Mpg Imp

Nah, that was with the 35's on it, it's doing virtually the same numbers with the 37's though.
