MPG
Well if you can call not pressing either pedal more than 5mm, over-inflating the tyres, not allowing it to idle, using 5th gear above 25mph, keeping the windows wound up, adding molyslip to the diff, transferbox and gearbox easy anyway
If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

Standard truck other than spacers and 195 tyres.

I guess the 42 mpg was on the way to Reading, it was magnetically drawn to the home of BigJimny. It was probably worse on the way back as it had to overcome the gravitational pull
