After 97000 miles my torque monster continues to amaze
Yesterday we went 300 miles on a tad more than half a tank (8 gallons) in conditions ranging from stop and go traffic jams on I-15 to 100+ mph on cruise control. I use mine exclusively for long distance and have never had CBU cleaning done. 335d's really are in a class of 1.[IMG][/IMG]

That's for sure. Am salivating about upcoming road trips during the next 30 days. Mine's a relative youngster though, at only 71k miles.

Yes Im using the odometer. Last year I drove from my property in Kiowa CO to my home in Thousand Oaks CA, a distance of 1145 miles, in 13 1/2 hours. I stopped for fuel just two times.

Just a tick under an average of 85 mph and 2 stops. That was some smokey and the bandit type driving. Was the 13.5 hrs actual driving time or door to door? Your speeds would have to be triple digit + to keep an 85 mile/hr average even for those 2 fuel stops. That is smokin! I was happy to travel 900 miles (only 1 fuel stop) in 13 hours from Houston to Hendersonville, TN with 2 huge rainstorms along the way and had to slow down to 50 mph in both cases.
