hi there
sounds like you don't have o/d (4th gear). 
should get about 30mpg at that speed.

Hi Snoopy and ScorpioMan,
I've just successfully opened it via the link (and I said "No" to "update links?"). It is an Excel file so I guess you need some kind of spreadsheet program (if not Excel) to see it. If you have and still can't then I'm stumped.

NOR me, don't forget its YOUR web page that you are linking to and it may have YOUR cookies.... One suggestion right click on the file when you next go there and go to properties and copy THAT location and put that up it might be different.
I have MS Office Pro and use Excel so its NOT that. I cannot find the server
