    Tell him!

    Sure you think that Mack gets good fuel mileage, but when you weigh in how much oil you use per MILE your fuel mileage aint that good. I have a 89 379 with 425 MECHANICAL CAT that uses less than a gallon of oil in 10,000 miles. How much oil do you use a week?

    milage- is spelled mileage. Are you sure your not in 1st grade?


    I guess you could pay off $2,400.00 in one year if you want those $200.00 a month payments. I didn't care about the fuel mileage. They want it there, I do it. I get paid well for it.:biggrin_2559:

    Oh and on the fuel mileage, I won't lie I get 4.5-5.0 depending on how far down the pedal is, but I have a turned up 425 Mechanical CAT.

    I took my first ride, prolly 1974 or 75, in a R600 i think, out to PA. That was pretty big fun for a little kid.
