yeah, 4600 lbs is heavy.
i had a '77 landcruiser FJ40 with 400 ci chevy engine, racing heads (10:1 compression) and a competition rochester carburetor and a five speed. it got 12MPG on the freeway. i have no idea how much it got in the city. it had a locked front differential and could climb vertical cliffs. i only had it for about 6 months and realized that fuel alone was breaking the bank, so i sold it. the yahoos that bought it destroyed it within about two months. they were doing about 70 MPH on a DEEPLY rutted dirt road out in the desert and rolled it about five times. they survived due to the heavy full cage roll bar and four point harnesses. idgits.
