Ninety dollars!

The biggest reason is probably the size of the empty space in the body where they intend to put the tank.  There's an extra bulge in the Astro's underbody where they can make the tank a gallon or two larger.

I think our Astro is a 28 gallon tank.  We've never put more than 27 gallons in it.

Tank is the right word for it, too...consuming a gallon of fuel every 21 miles (16 miles if towing), she's not cheap to run.

Was up under my truck a couple of weeks ago (witness the wide opening in my scalp) putting a new Class V Putnam XDR hitch. Plenty of room for more tank. Could get a Transfer Flow tank, but really don't need it, I guess. It would be nice if I drove long distances.

My 4Runner gets between 16 and 20 (depends on how fast I drive).

I've been taking the motorcycle.  It's 25-35 (depending, again, on how I drive it and how fast I go on the HWY).

Neither have air conditioning right now, but one of them has better airflow (snicker).

Filled a 5 gallon gas can the other day.  $16..

Jacqui where in Nor Cal are you?? Under $3 a gal! We

Well, the station we paid $90.01 for a tank of gas made so much money on that gas that they have come down in price nearly 40 cents a gallon in just a couple weeks.

And to think I was complaining of being in the high 2.60's here in NJ and that is full service ( you can't pump your own in NJ ).

Hmmmm....

We are paying around $1.07 a litre in Ontario, Canada right now.

I know gas is expensive, but do the math:

1 US Gallon = 3.785 litres

So....  even if you round down to USD$3.00/Gal. you are paying, we in Canada are paying approximately $4.05/Gal!!!
