The fuel consumption figures give the amount of fuel consumed in the average 4-hour period of driving and periodically stopping. How much extra fuel gets consumed in a 20-minute firefight? What about if you're driving hard and fast because you're trying to outrun your attackers?

Something I've thought about on and off over the years, but I've never been able to come up with a satisfactory answer to. (Damn, that sentence was grammatically incorrect!)
Well for the GM to avoid a mathematics discussion - let's just say the attackers hit the gas tank so it drips down to 50% of what it was before the attack,......easy
