You can EXPECT to get 9mpg....ask Dice

will you get it? Ask MNDRIVER

That guy gets 7 and lives in Chicago....you live in the Pacific NW

 

I leave today for Phoenix. First big trip since I got some kind of progress made in my struggles.

I see no reason not to expect low to mid 6's. Low 7's should be realistic too.


Just went back and looked at my DDEC report from when I bought the truck. It was run by Cross Creek Trucking out of Medford Oregon during this time.

 

best i've seen in the NW is 6.1 but that didn't last long. average has been around 5.5

load from salt lake to phoenix. 5.4.

coming back. 4.5

can't wait to see what happens on the east coast.

 

how heavy is your foot? that is the number one variable in your mpg

 

You sayin I'm more realistic....

 

Lol...no I am saying you have had your ups and downs with mileage and have put a lot of time and effort into optimizing your fuel economy, it has been a struggle but you might have it solved ....
