 ? for those on the LA mud run
Will I be ok with a 6 gal gas tank on the mud run or should I start looking for a 9 or 12 gal?

 Re: ? for those on the LA mud run
2-3 gallons will do. And don't worry about running out cuz I'll sell you some of 15 or so gallons I'll have for the special mud run price of $4.00 per gallon. Lol!!
Seriously, last year I burned about 7.5 gallons.

 Re: ? for those on the LA mud run
Same amount of running. Less time stuck. It's less work to follow sometimes. I might do more playing this year. Depending on who is in the boat with me.

 Re: ? for those on the LA mud run
I wouldn't bring any less than 12 gallons to be safe.

 Re: ? for those on the LA mud run
After all this talk I think I will be bringing 12 gallons.... I don't want to have to drag my boat even one inch!
