Considering the weight of an S-class that's exceptional MPG, how does the car math compare to hand calc? I found my 12s to under-report by .5 mpg for some odd reason
I haven’t ever calculated it by hand, I will one of these days. I’ve gotten 29 or so.
Couldn't come at a worse time for Nissan. 443,000+ vehicles affected. Every mechanic I watch on YouTube warned about this engine when it debuted. Should have just stuck the old trusty VQ V6 in there.
Absolutely zero surprise there.
That said it's now time to find a car that has one for cheap to abuse the free engine.....
Yeah I’m going to try and hit it on the way back. We’ll see how nutty it is on Sunday!
Let us know what you think of it. The new Buc-ee's is getting some good comments in the press here for its clean restrooms, well-paid/well-treated employees (at least better than those of a lot of other companies), and the fact that they don't allow big semi-trucks to come in and sit there idling, which fills the air with diesel soot. The food that they serve, though, is (apparanty) not the healthiest stuff on the planet.......I say "apparantly", because I am only going by hearsay-comments from others, not my own experience.
