Lost the tank twice on this drive so not 100% sure on milage. I also tried to do some hyper milage techniques but it has not worked on this tank or I have not counted milage 100%. Next tank will have red x, new engine filtre and oil as well as re done rear axel bushes so I can carry more speed around corners. Total milage 160,424 miles
