That’s your average and I haven’t disputed yours or anyone else’s. Yet you insist mine isn’t what I say it is because yours is 47mph.
Don’t even know the lanes I run or how I run but you know I’m wrong.
Now compare your ecm dash readout to your elog. Both should be the same since the elog gets the data from the ecm also.
How’s the tread on your tires? I know from brand new to needing new can reduce mph by 2 mph. That said my gps stays dead on 100% of the time.
What's the reasonable average speed for trucks in North America?

The overall average is taken from the time you turn the gps on until you turn it off.
Been awhile since I’ve looked at my stats and forgot about the overall average. Got to head over to the truck tonight to charge the batteries since I left the fridge on. Going to take a look at the stats and get a pic. -
Pure Outlaw!Sons Hero, bryan21384, D.Tibbitt and 1 other person Thank this.

I know everyone's is different I'm just not believing a 65 mph average. And I don't care if you run out west.
-
Checked one of the old man's trucks years ago. Odometer reading divided by hour meter. Think it was about 28 MPH.
-
If you calculated it that way on my truck it would probably work out to 3 mph
D.Tibbitt Thanks this. -
Earlier you weren’t believing anyone with a 60 mph average
Sons Hero Thanks this. -
I can imagine how insanely boring yet absolutely balls to the wall these high avg speed trips must be
Concorde Thanks this. -
Why? The speed limit is 75-80 in every state out west... lol major cities 300-400 miles apart. Even swift can average 60 mph if they know how to keep the doors closed...
Did 160k miles last year and was home 2 weekends a month for a 34. I don't Park at truckstops hardly and creep around at deliveries/pickups. the little things add upbryan21384 Thanks this. -
Oh, boy, and why you are a nightshift driver, for the extra 7 cents perhaps?
