Well my 68 Road Runner 383 4 gear 3.23 rear gear and the way i drove it ( HARD) would get 14-15 around town and out on the open road on a trip running way over the speed limit i could knock down just shy of 19 mpg . My 71 Duster 340 with the slush box and 3.23 gears on a trip would do just this side of 20 hauling donkey and i do mean flat out and flyen and yes it would do every bit of what the speedometer said plus a shade more if ya held it on the floor and there are two guys that were in the Duster when we did push her past the 150 mark. So here we are today with the latest and greatest tech. and there ain't nothing on the road that can get out of it's shadow or get any real fuel mileage . Heck the wifes old Dodge Intrepid with the 3.3 on the first trip out to Slo's for the taler gathering knocked down 35 and i was shocked as i did not spare the whip on the way out . Now go look and see what the best ya can get out of this new JUNK and for what price. Just about to the point of giving what someone wants for a 68-69 Road Runner and dive it atleast i can fix them. I realy don't need A/C power winders cruse control or power seats with heated leather and the rest of the B/S along with ABS braking plus the added advantage of if i wanted to pass someone it only took a couple seconds.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Plow and Disc - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea ... [Read Article]
