This Texan will be fleeing in a 300TD, but only as far as Ft. Worth. I
haven't figured out yet whether the gasoline shortages also include diesel
shortages. In any case, I've got a full tank which will take me about 320
miles at highway speeds, less if I'm in stop and go. Right now I'm waiting
for the I-45 traffic to thin out a bit. I sent the wife, kids, and
grandkids ahead this morning and it took them about 7 hours...normally a 3
1/2 hour trip from here (25 miles north of Houston).
Your 300TDt should with it's 70 liter fuel tank (including the 11 liter
reserve) should allow you to travel 460 miles (@ 25 mpg) or 370 miles @
20 mpg.
Happy trails!
