    Default Fuel consumption !!!!!

    Ok guys. As some of you know I bought my ZT-T down south, a journey home of 555 miles. I filled the tank to the brim in Luton then again at Cairnlodge near Douglas and again when I arrived in Elgin. How many gallons of fuel did I use? There's a dram in it for you if I see you at any meets. Keep in mind I was not thrashing the car on the way home

    I'd say roughly 21 gallons
