My travel log

2001 F250 5.4/auto + 3k uhaul trailer 1080 miles
(154 gal gas) = 6.99 mpg

1977 F250 trailer special 400/auto + 7k travel trailer 1140 miles
(154.5 gal gas) = 7.4 mpg

1999 F250 7.3 PSD/auto + 7k travel trailer 1262 miles
(90.5 gals fuel) = 13.9 mpg

Thats all I have to say about that.............

Hey, got at least a page of entertaining replies out of one comment... we'll have 200 'fore Christmas. :-)

Here's something new for you guys. Might seem off topic - but with all the conversation about fuel economy on here, if this works, it'll be a pretty big leg up for the diesels... since they'll still be running when the rest of the world runs out of gasoline. :-)

(I know, I know... you guys are used to hearing me quote my wife about the importance of ... umm... displacement.)

I wonder how many pages this thread will be up to when some of us have gotten old and fat enough to argue about how well our trucks lug our wives up a 7% grade? No one? Yeah, I wouldn't use that argument either.

Also: No, that is no to be repeated in front of anyone's wives... especially with my name attached.

Thats a good looking truck 95_Dually. My boss has a 96 Centurian crew cab/extended cab dually sitting in our shop with a PSD.
He calls it his cowboy cadillac, that one long truck!

I would love to have the extended cab behind the crew cab. I have 5 kids and we need to take the van everywhere we go as a family. I would rather take the truck.LOL

I hear ya, the back seat folds into a bed. and the seats are like so soft its hard to stay awake driving it.

Ill have to get a few pics of it. It hasn't moved in months, I just put two new batteries in her last week. Pulling the 32ft goosneck with it is like driving a train.
We better not hijack this thread, as soon as the gassers get back from the gas station, they are gonna want to stir the pot some more.
