550 HP. I'm sure that with higher gearing the Kenworth would do better. I think it is disgusting that these little pickups burn so much fuel.

I don't understand how you are coming up with " these little pickups burn so much fuel." ? I'm running combined in the 28-29,000# range and I have never gotten below 8.5 average on a tank of fuel and that is running 70+. It takes so much power to move a load and that amount of power is going to use a curtain amount of fuel.

Is that HAND calc filling tank to top over several tanks? Or are you using the EVIC? My EVIC is fairly consistent at .4 better than reality.

After running several tanks of right at 70 gallons (truck tank and aux tank) my evic has always been with-in .1 +-. I don't run the hills out west but here in Kentucky/Tenn they are rolling and there are some good ones just not miles long.
