Mileage Marathon!!!!!!!!!



We had a mileage marathon last Sunday at Vizag. Meaning “we call our vehicles and competition vehicles; give them load, and do a mileage test”. The winner gets a cash prize. Simple.

Not so simple guys. We were directly challenging Tata, and we had to be careful. So we did a midnight mileage trial, with one Tata vehicle and one Eicher vehicle. As unexpected, the Tata vehicle gave a higher mileage! Lost sleep that night. Woke my boss up at 3.00 am, and we were having a discussion as to whether the event can be cancelled.

Head quarters said nothing doing. Go ahead. Be confident, and our vehicles will win. So we carried on.

As again unexpected, Tata vehicle won the next day out of the 11 vehicles that participated. We somehow managed to manage the situation! Why all this hullabaloo? Let Tata have the Tata mileage and let Eicher have the Eicher mileage.
