Just in case we are crossing wires here, wasn't calling you out for bragging, but I definitely was.

So true. I'm always curious for the "real" capacity for times like when the power was out in Golden (where I needed gas) and Field (where I hoped to barely make it to as a backup plan). I was driving an old V8 S4, one of the least fuel efficient compact sedans ever, even worse than the RS4 of the same vintage that had 100hp more.

No gas in Golden, because no power, so on to Field I went. I was 0km to empty (according to the dash) about halfway between Golden and Field. After getting turned down in field as well, I was windows up, AC off, crawling up the steep hills to try limp into Lake Louise. I still had like 4L left. So disappointing... the AC would have been nice to have on haha.
