M1 gets .6 gallons to the mile, with a maintenance schedule that requires a check to be completed every 12 hours, even in combat. Failure to complete the maintenance check can result in engine failures that cannot be corrected in the field. At least it looks cool though.

They need to rev the engine up to a certain speed to blast sand particles out of the filter every twelve hours. It can be done from inside the tank and only takes a couple of minutes.
