less fuel = less weight??
Posted: Thu Jul 12, 2012 9:14 am
Hi all.
Would carrying 2/3 of fuel make the power to weight ratio better?
I'm already used to stopping at every fill station(something a V6 owner comes to terms with
),so it's been suggested that instead of carrying full capacity,to cut down a bit thereby reducing unnecessary weight.
Does this make sense??
I don't think fuel consumption will be affected,only a bit more pulling power maybe.
Any thoughts?
PS,this is for intercity cruising,where fuel availability is not an issue.
