Would you like to rephrase that? What GPM is more like it!

I know in Australia they use the 35C16 in the dump trucks for mining and i think they get about 4mpg tops on a good day but they use a different method of measuring consumption as for a start they only have litres of fuel there.



There's an engine in there somewhere!
