I'm writing nonsense again for my book and need help.
Firstly how heavy in tons is 7200kg?
And what MPG could be expected to move this weight with a 7.2litre petrol V8..
Let the arguments begin..
3
25.7
7.936641438624
Buggered if I know.
As i thought 8ton, it's a freaking mobile freaking home, 8ton......! 😯 stupid freaking excessive Yanks.
is that a short ton or a metric ton or a long ton?
7.2 metric ton
and 7.2MPG ish
🙄 Not enough fingers dd?
jeeeesus! What you trying to move ? Your house?
oh and i highly doubt you'll be getting anywhere near 7.2 MPG.
Theres a merc AMG that has a 6.3 litre v8 and it's hardly getting 10-15 MPG and i highly doubt it weighs anywhere near 7 tonnes.
Imperial or US gallons?
Ah, yanks !!
That'll be 7.936641438624 ton [short, US]
and I still say 7.2 MPG
UK gals and the engine will be nowhere near as refined as an AMG.
It's a late 80's V8,
Not enough fingers dd?
I used dem toes too. Sticking by my results though. 😛

This will give you some means to work out some ball park figure. You will need to adjust some of the calcs obviously.
surely that's a tank ?
can I work the turret ?
No way of knowing mpg as fuel use isnt really affected by weight until you have to accelerate it. Cruising down a flat highway at 40mph, the only thing that might increase fuel consumption between two identical cars but one with a 6 ton load inside it, is the increased bearing friction in the wheels and the increased tyre rolling resistance. Everything else is still equal. If you start going uphill that's a different matter.
Hands off my turret barnes, you're not licensed to wield such lethal weapons.. 😉
I've done some in depth research and the answer is Dinamo Bucharest
If you don't start the engine and simply throw the lump at the mobile home then MPG will be improved.
OR - park the mobile home near a cliff edge, attach it to the engine using a chain and throw the engine off the cliff. If the chain is long enough (and the cliff high enough) then it should gain enough potential energy to move the mobile home.
Or, give the engine to a rugby team that like engines and, in exchange, make them push the mobile home.
Thanks TM, that's the one..
Chevy 454 lump. 7.4 not 7.2 litre 8)
4 beds + 8)

Shinny 😀

133" rear overhang...opps there goes most parked cars..
email this guy, he might know

80 litre fuel tank?
you don't need those 4 beds, you'll be able to walk home from where you run out of fuel.
