Lmao! I told ya, he's gonna give you a run for your money! Personally, I set the cruise at 62 and don't feel annoyed all that much til I run up on someone doing 58 or 60 and right when I'm even with them, they realize they're going slow and hammer on it. Patience and trucking smart. Like Ray has posted, those numbers won't lie.
OAN, I've notice a .6 to .7mpg drop since my last service. I'm guessing it's due to using more of the winter blend the last few weeks? My truck also coughs sometimes (1553) where I momentarily lose acceleration, just a second but still.. is this normal on these PACCAR motors? And do the MPG targets change with the summer then winter blends of fuel? Thanks!

I have a long way to go before I'll give zata a run for his money. Just did a red eye out of st paul to Indiana, 530 miles roughly with a little over 2 hours left on the drive clock.
Its days like today that makes me want an automatic. Im about 50/50 on grabbing the low end gears when under 10 mph on a downshift coming through those toll booths. Frustrates me something fierce.mattbh23 Thanks this. -

Well ended up getting a brokered load coming out of Florida, that picked up in Adel, GA and had to run that up to Grand Forks...had to preload a trailer and run that back to the Glass house and getting a pm done then headed over to Jamestown then over to Coon Rapids. Then p.u. In Eagan and go to Ohio then home for a few days.
