Flatbed. Steel coils and lumber. Not sure of the weight though. Will be running midwest. Thanks for your help.

if you're hauling steel or lumber, you will always be close to 48000#. in that respect i would spec an ISX or such with about 450 hp 1650 tq, 13 spd, 3.55 gears and 22.5 lo-pro's. the 13 spd will let you split the upper end and 1650# of torque will let you keep it under 1500rpm to help with fuel economy. just my .02

a lot depends on driving habits and load and weather [headwind :x]. also engines play a part. newer engines tend to be more efficient due to better electronics. i guess what i'm trying to say is that it's hard to compare mpg's. i've had a low of 4.4 mpg's :sad: and up to 7.8 mpg's.
 like i said, it depends. 8)
