Yup. Re-read post. Engine efficiency. Very hi-fallutin. Interesting but not much use to us folks lookin to maximize mileage. GPM. Got it. Yup. Very fancy inverting them there numbers. Purty neat what ya can do with that there math.

'Round these parts we like to stick with MPG n'all. Not much use 'round here for GPM 'cept if'n you're talkin bout how much water it takes to get a horse from the farm to the big city.

Gotta go and clear out some tumbleweeds. Them critters just be getting ever where!
