Well, you need to get something figured out. MY '09 PInnacle with a 445 hp MP8 has 151K on the ticker, LOV MPG of 4.8 mpg, but on a daily basis on the interstate (and I run well above sea level) but this past Monday 5/3, I went from Denver to Imperial Ne. and back, mty heading out and 79,450 coming back and I averaged 5.8 mpg rnd trip # 66 mph. Mine is governed at 75 mph (cruise is goverened at 66 mph, long story), I can get 5.9 mph empty with the cruise set at 75 over a long distance.
But back to the OP, on a good day I pass every SWIFT truck I see, on a bad day, one or two slip by but usually when they do I'm either exiting the interstate, entering the interstate, or stopped at a light off the interstate and watching them go by. BTW, about 4 weeks ago I passed a SWIFT truck in I-70 heading from Goodland to Denver, 5 miles after I passed him I had a blow out. Limped into Flagler, Colo. for the repair, 60 minutes later I was back on the road and I caught that same SWIFT truck (I remembered the trailer number) just as we hit the Aurora City limit sign.

What is up with all the insults? This is not the political thread. This is a swift bashing thread. Please mind your manners while posting here...
