this truck was designed on computers, and shaped in a wind tunnel, and they can't keep the side windows clear...... eye vay!
Any T680 Owners? Would love some feedback.

That's a good point - tech is great but real world is important. Maybe they should have added some dirty water to the wind tunnel.

Nobody can. Thats true. I repeated it 1000 times and will repeat again: nobody drive what they trying to design. Its a shame that women with 3 grade elementary school education trying to design truck sleeper interior, etc.
Only blatant clueless "engineers" unable to design "one hand" operating sleeper window.

Just flipped 80,000 on my 2014 model. Still only getting 5.2 - 5.8 if I want to do 57mph on flats I can get 7.2 grossing 78,000 but in PA, WV, NC, SC, OH I only get 6mpg if I go slow.
So average for me is 5.5 - 5.8 averaging 65-72mph -
US99 in CA. 10plts, all I could squeeze is 10.3mpg for now.
Simranjit Thanks this. -

Okay, this is my latest trip average from Windsor On to Belvidere IL. March 19-20, 35-37 Fahrenheit, W-NW wind 15mph with 30mph wind gusting. Mainly flat highway with a little city traffic, two pic ups, two cold starts. 40,200lbs in the box one way, 26,000lbs return. My cruising speed is 59-60mph. -
