My numbers are in sig. The even heavier trucks on this board are in the high 20's for mpg. A thousand pounds here, a thousand pounds there and pretty soon you're talking engine power graphs -- bsfc charts -- and gears/tire height to make comparisons. They're useful. I'm not driving an air-conditioned go-kart nor are you and their numbers don't mean much for a truck with a turbodiesel. Yours is one that can be pointed out to others given numbers as you may choose to collect and publish for comparison purposes. Thanks for considering it.
