Chevy 3.0 first tow.
After 500 easy miles I hooked her up and hit the mountains. There's a handful of 6 and 7% grades and it was around 100 degrees out. But I have to first mention the empty mileage doing 55 mph this...

One question. Why so slow on the speeds? And your comparisons of being happy it’s 10 MPG, were those at the same speeds?
The 3.0 in the Fords is all but gone and the 3.0 Eco Diesel in the Rams is probably not far behind. I recall predicting these engines will probably not last long in the market and with the next round of emissions standards and diesel fuel prices at a premium that maybe the last straw.
The EcoDiesel has been around for nearly 10 years.....
