My favorite vehicle I ever owned (see my profile pic) was my 2004 3/4 ton Dodge. Should have never sold it. That Cummins 600 was amazing.

Congrats on yours. You'll love it.

Mine (2006 5.9L I-6 Cummins) gets the same mileage on my 21 mile daily commute as my 1.8T 4-banger. I daily drove the Cummins for 10 years before my i3 came along. Can't beat that 610 foot-pounds of air conditioning on a hot day. We won't talk about the total lack of heat on a cold day, though.....

That's pretty horrible for a vespa. Maybe the pink racing stripes are too heavy.

Yeah maybe I'll ditch the stripes and get the dangling truck nutsacks to dangle off the rear fender.

Pretty sure that's broken cuz I'm 55 on the streets and 85 freeway usually lol.

But where I live, I can bypass the freeways. Except when I go to OC, no choice unless I want to take the scenic route and 2+ hours to go 40 miles.

Thank you for the support. I appreciate it.

If only y'all knew how I drove most of the time. This is great though, if I ever get pulled over I'm just going to point at the 18.1 mph average.

Will have to totally cover the 9.9mpg however. or maybe not. Lemme ask Sedan in the Ask a Cop thread. "Will you have sympathy if you noticed the average fuel consumption is in the single digits?"

That freezer brings back childhood memories. We had a freezer in the garage like that but bigger. I swear to God there were smelt's in there that my dad and I caught they were in there for 10 years
