Beastmaster is off the scale

For those of you who are running the Adventure package or are running 33's, please adjust by increasing your total mileage by 3.7%.

So, if you're ran 100 miles on the odometer, you've actually run 103.7 miles.

The 3.7 percent can make a difference in regards to your overall MPG. For example (in a perfect mathematical world using 11 gallons of fuel exactly):

Running 32's (base/lux)
200 Miles run
11 Gallons used
200/11 = 18.18 MPG

Running 33's (Adventure)
200 Miles run (on odometer)
207.4 miles actual (3.7% difference)
11 Gallons used
207.4/11 = 18.854 MPG
