Mostly loaded going down, only 42k northbound, then old trailer empty back to PA, couple hours idling, should of fueled up yesterday to check my numbers against the two trailers, I was in the pedal a bit on the way back yesterday too loaded 70-73.
was usually 5.4ish for the quarter on ifta with the kw without idling at all, closer to 5 the last year or so when I had to idle. I’ll have to get another tank of def through her to try and figure numbers out a little closer for that, once she’s broken in and I fine tune my driving to this truck I’m hoping she might be able to pop 6 running up here, I’m sure once I get out where it’s flat she will do even better than that
Oh and I have a microwave/air fryer combo that will run off the factory inverter so I can start bringing more stuff with me

Eye-opening. I'd love to own a W900... in some sort of low speed or local application. Haulin dirt. I don't know.
I'd really want to be doing 6.5 or better all in average.
"Get an aero W9, the T660!"
Doesn't do it for me. What use case is a W900 most economically competitive?Richard_Trucking Thanks this. -
my loads are usually… well, let’s just call them chunky, and I live in MA and do a lot of VT, hills and weight start eating fuel pretty quick, I could click out 6 in the w9 with perfect condition out in the flat lands but I don’t get to do those as much as I like toRichard_Trucking, Magoo1968, Sons Hero and 4 others Thank this.

Haven’t had a chance to read the finished article yet,
Either I’m learning this x15 a bit or it’s breaking in more (or both, but milage keeps climbing, 6.2 on the last one and that included a north bound with 51k in the wagon, we just got a decent size amount of work so I’m using both trailer and back In last years issue of running out of #### to weld to on my old trailer, don’t really want to have a payment on another new one but not sure I want to buy another 8-10 year old trailer. Figure I’ll have a little bit of time before I fall through the floor

Also found a green APU dealer down near the dock, think I’m going to go ahead and order one, I don’t want to get in the habit of idling this thing but I can’t deal with the heat
