I have so little experience driving trucks like this, I can't honestly say if that's a realistic goal.

But the ScanGauge purchase was definitely the right first step. With the amount of fuel this thing will burn in a year, it'll more than pay for itself!

Weight reduction tip: don't fill both tanks if you don't have to.
