Not to mention driving a Winnebago that probably gets about 3 miles per gallon. Arggh!
compared to an Abrams tank that gets .....what.......
15 gallons to the mile or so? 224 metres to the litre[ish]
fuel tank holds 1900 litres, maximum range of 426 klicks.
but to be fair - it can run on almost any flammable liquid - but that is still a lot of fuel to pump every day.
trivia..an Abrams has roughly double the fuel consumption of a Leopard 2, or a T90
