    I would guess any where from 8-12 miles per gallon. Just a guess though. I used to be able to get around 11 mpg bob-tailing with a high shack kenworth tandem tractor. Your foot is a big factor on what kind of fuel mileage you get. Also I do not see a problem with the current ratio unless you have laws that allow higher speed driving.
