    Pulling what kind of loads? I can get you numbers when i come back. But just this week i did 7.5 pulling 43k at 60 mph from wilton to md not to many mountains. However pulling 41k from carlisle to wilton i could only get 6.7 but i was doing 65 most of the way and 78 has a couple big hills. Besides that everything else i haul under 30k its between 8.3 and 8.8 but im still trying to perfect some type of fuel saving driving method. Any suggestions before i go back and reread threads?


    As far as the 2 i think the 680 has a more refined interior but im also biased a little
