30mpg?!?!? damn

75mph 2000rpms 14mpg (at a constant speed)

45mph 1200rpms not sure what mileage but decent I guess if I stay at a constant speed

TFIDDLE · Apr 20, 2011 at 8:05 PM

so I am guessing from 17-2000 rpms is the sweet spot for these trucks?

1600 rpm's at 65 and 23-24 mpg's (highway) (on 37's )
