This truck is #1 or 2 on my list of my next truck.
How is yours specced and what kind of mpg are you getting?MartinFromBC Thanks this. -
I specked mine with an efficient drive train, PACCAR MX13 455hp multi torque 1550/1750 split, PACCAR 12 spd tranny and 2.79 rears.
June 6.7
July 6.9
So far average is same a bit better than my T660 was with similar specs. Based off of my experience with my previous truck, I expect my fuel economy to increase as the drive train breaks in. First overhead is done at 60,000 mls, that’s about when I noticed performance and economy increase in my last truck.
I normally set my cruise at 68, sometimes 70. Mixture of heavy and light loads throughout the month.TomGodin and MartinFromBC Thank this. -
