Another contest
My wife and I are going to my camp this weekend. It's a long trip on I 95 mostly in Maine. I'll have a canoe on the roof of the F350 diesel. The canoe is aerodynamic, but it will add a lot of frontal area.
The closes mileage guess gets a 10 buck prize. |
Guestimate
11.8 L/100Km
|
I'm going with 19.22 mpg
|
I'll take 19.23 for $100 Alex.
|
19.3
What kinda bucks are we talking about here? Like winning a TOy-Yoda? |
1mpg... is this like The Price is Right?
|
19.5!
Judging by your gaslog, 19.2 to 19.6 would be a safe betting margin. Prove me wrong and get over 20! Canoe FTW! |
18.38
|

the canoe on the roof will be pretty rough on you. sorry. |
18.3
|
18.2
|
I don't know the roads up there have a higher than normal drag - when I went up there I lost about 5-6 mpg.
I will say 18.5mpg since others are already taken. |
A buck or doe,I don't mind, but watch for the moose.
The canoe will catch a lot of air coming up the windshield so the hydrodynamic efficiency of wetted hull surface has little to no effect on the aerodynamics of an inverted elongated fiberrglass 'parachute'. 16.6 mpg 18.938 mpg uncorrected, or 19.117 mpg corrected. Welcome to 1984 where the facts get "rectified". |
18.9
|
18.8
|
The resutls are in: 862.4 miles, 46.538 gallons for 18.938 (uncorrected for tire diameter),
|
32 current diamter, 31.7 original equipment diameter = 19.117 corrected. Step up and claim your money by emailing me a mailing address.
|
Wow. Nice.
|
I think ODieTurbo got it?!??
GO BANANAS! |
Was this a closest without going over deal? 'Cause my guess was 19.22, third post from the top.
|
