Well for an update to my MPG….. based on a comment by @bigwalton on another thread, I decided to test the Scrambler at highway speeds. I was averaging 60-65 mph for an hour to a parade, then the same on the way home last weekend.

I just filled up the tank and checked my mileage. Woot!!! 13.881 mpg. The best I have ever gotten. So the 4.0 really likes highway speeds. Thanks for pushing me Eric.

Oh and I just ordered the manual trans controller with the switch. I am hoping it is easy to install.

Now you just need to realize you can peg the speedometer with that setup ;)
