I rolled the Montero over to 173k about 600 miles/ 3 days ago... Raider has about 178 on the odo as she sits. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />


Damn, you haven't wasted time giving that old pup a workout once again <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> It wasn't long ago she was doing the 800 mile weekend trips to connecticut.

She handles tbe trips like a champ. Ball joints are shot though so it makes for interesting times. MPG is also sh*t at 13.5 mpg with cruise set at 70 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> I assume the balljoints cant help and the fact the fill and vent hoses on the gas tank are shot. I am a little concerned with the mpg figures but I will get to that bridge when I get the Raider working again. Hate to drag this off track but this weekend is tear into time (woot!) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
