I have seen early Type II's get as much as 25 mpg if the wind is helping. I think I get around 23 mpg in the vanagon pulling my little trailer. I know that Dan gets pretty good milage in his "phat chick" but I'm not sure how much. Sammie Smith <slsmith@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: The Type II, if you're lucky, gets about 18 mpg on the highway. It holds 40 liters (about 10.5 gallons). Figure that out. I think, if my math is correct, that's about 189 miles. Sharon, you were doing better than 18 mpg or you would have run out 2 miles short of the station instead of 1 mile.
