How do I compare?
I just like how I compare to other trucks in fuel mileage.
I just completed a 2000 mile trip over the weekend from middle/west Tennessee to PA. with bad up-pipes and I got right at 18 mpg. with 3:73 gears and 315 tires.
Thanks

And with 315s? Pretty stout tire. Good mileage.

I'll average 18 to 20 with nearly no load highway driving on long trips. I've had as high as 24mpg before (all-time high). And I've got 265s for tires.
Under load? (slide-in camper, trailer with large ATV, etc., or boat)......14 to 15.

So, since you are doing the comparison, what do you have. Is it a LB or SB, CC, or ect.
This is just for my own reference, my numbers seem to be about common for the truck I have..I was just wondering what you had that was pullin those numbers.

Damn, I am so jellous... I have never seen numbers like that. I only lost MPG when they changed fuel, otherwise, my numbers are the same no matter what....

I just hope I don't do a 2000 mile trip anytime soon but will check milage when I hit the big road.......just to many starts and stops with hills from work to home to compare what i got out on the road. The tires are Nitto Tera Graplers.
