Wow! That's ESPECIALLY impressive considering your bigazz lift and bigazz tires!

That's because you're not nuts. I wouldn't have known my trail mileage but I was curious about my highway mileage on my trip there so I kept tracking it. I refilled the tank every evening and kept obsessively keeping records or I would never have known what my mileage would have been while creeping, idling, waiting, etc.

True dat. All my calculations were based on odometer & full-tank to full-tank readings so I'm confident my math is right!
