i have just made the 10 hour mark and it was fun all the way, got to up to about 60 on a gravel road and it got kind of "lose", i think i'll need tires but thats a diff. topic. I am wondering what kind of gass mileage this thing will get? i have 29.5 miles on it and the gas light started to flash at me.. i hope it gets better.

 

I put over 40 hard miles on mine yesterday and it still had 3 bars of gas left. Took about 3 gallons to fill it back up. And put another 30+ on it today and it took about 2.5 more gallons today. It's gas mileage isn't as bad as I expected really out of such a large displacement machine. Bringing it in for it's 60 mile service tomorrow. I hope you are enjoying yours as much as I am [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

MY worst was 10.6mpg in 4x4Low on a grueling 20 mile ride in Colorado last August. My best has been 17.6MPG, with about 90% in 4x2High. I avg around 16MPG with 50/50 riding in 4x4/4x2.

 

so far it has been good but it was having problems staying in 4wd. it would sometimes kick back into 2x2..

 

I haven't had any engagement/disengagement problems with the 4wd as of yet personally. It seems a little more picky than my eiger which is stricltly manual lever control.

 

My first ride was 33 miles long, I had 4 bars left.....

 

MINE GETS AROUND 70 TO 80 ON FULL TANK RIDEING ON OPEN TRAILS AVERAGE 40 MPH

 

where were you riding in colorado ?

 

i have noticed now that when i think its full, its not. if you shake it i alway get about another 3/4 of a gallon in it.
