Hi Guys,
thanks for the answers and the welcomes. I'm new to Jeep ownership - stand by for plenty of 'bone' questions!
I bought it to tow my glider trailer. Its 30 odd foot long but only 600kgs or so. I don't think it will struggle! It will mainly get used on the road but also on airfields and, no doubt, in fields that I land in!
I'm quite pleased with the economy - low/mid 30's. Did you know you can run them quite happily on Jet A1 (aviation jet engine fuel) or kerosene? I know this isn't much use to most people but quite a lot of people have oil fired central heating. The oil is virtually identical ;-) and - obviously - despite it being clear, never ever use it on the road!
I used to spend 6 months a year in Norway and we ran our Landy's and Transits on Jet A1 + mineral oil - no problems at all....
Cheers,
Daz.
