Back at home!

Just got back home last night late!! Had a great time, fishing was really good!!
Truck pulled great and was very impressed with the mileage. 12mpg all pulling the 8000lbs trailer. I drove a little slower this time 100klm compared to 110 that I did last year. I will try and post some pic's later!

Thats pretty respectable mileage for a half ton with that weight. Just out of curiosity, do you have any idea how much difference slowing down the 10 kph made?

i think 110 was getting him 8-10mpg but the truck only had 3000k on it.

Sherm is right I was getting in that 8-10mpg range. I was also using priemium gas this time too. I filled up with fuel in North Battleford on the way home and drove 110 till Saskatoon but only 100 till Davidson where I filled up againe and the mileage was 12.2mpg.
