Subject:gas mileage
From:Brian and Carol Megas

Can anybody give me an idea about what would constitute reasonable gas
mileage in my '86 Westy?  We've been driving a '91 Vista for the last 12
years and I can't remember what kind of performance we got from our '71
Westy before that.  Thanks to all of you who responded to my request for
leads re: awnings - I think I have a handle on that, now.  We took Bruno for
our inaugural overnight on the weekend and had a wonderful time
rediscovering, after all this time, how great it was not to have to pack up
a wet tent in the rain!

Here's a question - what would you consider absolutely necessary to be
included in a Westy tool kit when going on a relatively remote, 2-3 week
wander?  Like I say, it's been a few years since we last worried about this
kind of stuff.

Thanks for any info/advice
