Here it is ladies and gentlemen. The miracle Tracker. At 38 miles per gallon it claims the title for worlds best gas mileage from a Tracker ::)

In his dreams. :P 2WD get maybe 31MPG.
I figure it's one o' those rigs... drive it one way, push it back. ::)

or he has "toy" axels ... roll it back and forth 10 times, and it goes without the engine running :) (aka "stomper")

Yep, I actually saw an E-bay ad with a quote of 34 mpg for a 4wd. ::) I wish. ;D

lol, I get better mileage now then i did when it was stock. Except my range is a little decreased from the huge dent in the tank. :o

The best I've ever done with my 4wd '96 is 30mpg.  That's with the tires pumped tp 32psi and driving it like I have an egg between my foot and the gas pedal. ÂÂ
If the tires are at factory spec of 23 psi, the mileage drops down to about 25mpg.  It's a trade off.  At 32psi it rides like a rock.
But, 38?  Maybe it's within the realm of possibility, but he's in Colorado Springs, and I doubt it at that altitude.  I guess not all fairy tales begin with, "Once upon a time..."
If only it weren't so PURPLE...

Maybe she lived in a town that was down hill the whole way ;D

What fun would that be with no hills to climb ::) Oh yea it is a 2wd :P My 2wd never got much over 30, much less pushing 40.

what if you put all those things you see around that say they increase MPG like the Tornado air swirl thingy, K&N filter, header, one of thoe thing you zip tie onto your fuel line, ect. think you could get 38 MPG? i think mabey

I knew a guy that installed two gas
savers, one was a 50% and one was
a 60% for a total of 110% gas savings :o
He had to stop every 30 miles or so and
drain his gas tank

Mine pushes ALMOST 20. There is somethin wrong with it but I have no clue what. The new tires made it worse and also just found a huge dent in my tank ::)whoops 8)

maybe they used imperial gallons! ;D 38 MPG Imp = 31 MPG US. Still kinda high!

Some of those devices work OK on some of the older carbed engines, but I doubt you'll see any improvement in a modern engine that's running moderately well.
About the only thing that might help a Zuki engine would be a turbo charger or reshaping fuel flow. (Not including the obvious... lightening the vehicle and over-airing the tires. <g>)
