Assuming that prices were the same in 2000 as they were in January 2002 ($1.419 US per gallon), and that the exchange rate was the same in 2000 as it was in January 2002, the support truck got 3.05 miles per gallon. Obviously we can't assume those things but I doubt they're likely to be much different.

Now, I may have done the math wrong, so somebody check me on this: Fuel Cost ($2030) / Price Per Gallon ($1.419) gives you 1430 gallons of fuel. Then, Miles Traveled (4367) / 1430 gallons of fuel should leave you with 3.05 mpg.
