8.5+ mpg

Yeah, I've thought about it but it's just more headaches. Also, I figured the mileage wasn't all that bad consdiering what we do.

last 3 tanks(1000 miles) have been between 8.43 and 8.5

This trip I just did now has to be around 9 mpg. I had 10k down, 7k in the box on the way back. I went 56 MPH.

I'll let you guys know.

How much of a fuel economy hit do you take from running the A/C in in a truck?


I'd imagine its not nearly as bad as a car given that its the same size compressor on an engine that's 3-5X as big.

I'd say running .1 mph faster would make about the same difference!
