I have a 2013 cascadia dd15, with 700k miles, cpu shows 6.90, but calculated i get more like 6.11. how much in yalls opinion does speed increase mpg. I have the truck wide open but i know the driver cruzes along at 70 all most always, i have a tracker, i was always under the impression that stops and goes kill more fuel than speed. Maby im wrong, when i drove i just hated not having a little ### behind the truck to be able to not take 20 miles to pass a werner truck. What do yall think.

My 2012 Volvo D13 10 speed seems to get the best mpg around 58 mph with a significant reduction in mpg at 65 or higher.

Notice I used the word could which is a possibility, but not a guarantee.
