Ridiculous way to SUPPOSEDLY fill all their tanks the same. So take those numbers with a grain!
Three different drivers and fuel tank fillers, HMMMMM.
So people say Diesels are expensive to operate, REALLY??? 91 octane is well north of Diesel pricing.
Little trailer like that and they can't get over 9.8? Flat land towing like that I would get 10.5 at 33k combined.
I guess that depends on what prices are in your area. It's not unusual here in truck country for Premium fuel (93 octane) to be less expensive than Diesel. Last I checked Diesel was an 80 cent premium over regular, and typically I see a 40-50 cent premium for 93 over regular. Don't forget the DEF.
None of which matters if you are towing heavy enough to need or want diesel.
You are correct. Really matters more about region.
