    What happends in one truck for fuel mpg doesnt always match what another truck does. Shifting, terrain, and load weight plays a factor. Just the performance aspect of it can be the difference

    That's where keeping a logbook of how you're doing on mileage really helps. You can see patterns and trends that way in the record of data that you keep - not just guessin' about what's happening.
