Well, lessee here -
no speedo or odo, so I have to activate the gears in the grey matter -
the trip to Jerusalem is 70km, takes under half a tank there and back -
say 15 liters for 140 km @ an average speed of 100kph (bursts up to 130 or
so). It's a pretty steep road, but that balances out coasting back down,
right?
OK 9.33 kilometers/liter = 21.94 miles per us gallon. Not bad, not great.
Should probably be higher than that. Gotta fix that overdrive one day.
Gas here is at 5.15 shekel / liter, which comes out to $1.15/liter or
$4.35/gallon.
