    Depending on wind, terrain, and weight .... I hauled equipment with a 3 axle tractor similar to yours and never experienced less than 6mpg in northern Arizona / Nevada / so cal. I guess overall average was in the mid 7's. I'd guess you should see mid 7's to high 8's hauling your race teams equipment.

    I know that the dot was hot after race car haulers like that in northern WI a couple of years ago,...They classify racing as working and wanted log books,med cards,dot numbers,..Ect......
    A bunch of guys had haulers parked up in Superior for a while until they payed fines and got legal,....

    I was told for hauling my pulling truck that if you could win money then it was a commercial business and had to have everything I need in my big truck
